Servings and Ingredients

Ingredients
Serves 4
QuantityIngredientAdd
4 medium zucchini
2 c. fresh baby spinach
2 oz. Hy-Vee Select natural fresh goat cheese
⅔ c. fresh basil leaves
½ c. unsalted raw pistachios
2 tbsp. nutritional yeast, optional
1 tbsp. fresh lemon juice
1 medium red bell pepper, seeded and thinly sliced
¾ c. cooked rotisserie chicken, shredded
1 c. light marinara sauce, such as Prego Light Smart marinara, warmed
Hy-Vee black pepper, optional

Things To Grab

  • Hy-Vee nonstick cooking spray
  • Large skillet
  • Vegetable peeler
  • Food processor or blender

Directions

  1. Lightly grease large skillet with cooking spray. Cut zucchini into 48 thin lengthwise strips with a vegetable peeler. Only cook one side of zucchini strips in skillet over medium heat until crisp-tender, about 30 seconds, remove from pan. Work in batches, as needed.

  2. Process the spinach, goat cheese, basil, pistachios, yeast and lemon juice in a food processor or blender until mixture is almost smooth.

  3. Assemble Roll-Ups: Overlap four zucchini slices. Spoon 2 tbsp of the spinach mixture about 1/2 inch from one end. Top with some of the bell pepper and some of the chicken. Roll up and place seam side down on a platter. Repeat with remaining zucchini slices and ingredients to make 12 roll-ups.

  4. Serve with marinara sauce and, if desired, season with black pepper.
