Zucchini Roll
Description
Zucchini rolls can be prepared in different ways. Some people bake the base from zucchini dough separately and then wrap the ready filling in it. I prefer baking the zucchini together with the filling in roll form, so the dish turns out as one whole piece. By the way, you can use all kinds of fillings. Many people put mushrooms, cheese, eggs, and vegetables in zucchini rolls. I like the version with ground meat; then such a zucchini roll works perfectly as a main course for dinner and everyone will be full. I offer you my recipe. The appetizer is ready. Serve immediately.

Step 1
1. To make the roll, use young zucchini with green or white skin. If the skin is green, you can leave it on; if it is white, it is better to peel it so the roll turns out more tender.
