April 6 • 2017 67 jn 4 medium zucchini 1½ cups jarred or homemade marinara sauce Filling: 1 cup part-skim ricotta cheese ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese 1 egg ¼ cup chopped fresh spinach 2 Tbsp. chopped fresh basil ¼ tsp. nutmeg ¼ tsp. salt 1∕ 3 tsp. pepper ½ tsp. shredded mozzarella cheese 2 Tbsp. grated Parmesan cheese 2 tsp. olive oil Salt, to taste Ground black pepper, to taste Preheat the oven to 375°F. Prepare 2 (9 x 13-inch) baking pans. Using a potato peeler, slice the two sides of each zucchini into thin flat strips, peeling until you reach the center. You will end up with 50-60 slices. Discard the out- side layers that are mainly peel rather than inside flesh. Spread a layer of marinara sauce into prepared pans. Prepare the filling: In a small mixing bowl, combine the ricotta, Parmesan, egg, spinach, basil, nut- meg, salt and pepper. Set aside. Form the ravioli: Place two strips of zucchini side by side, slightly overlapping. Then cross two more strips perpendicularly over the first strips, creating a plus sign shape. Spoon 1 Tbsp. filling into the center of the plus sign; bring the ends of the strips together, overlapping to create the ravioli (see photo). Place upside-down into the baking dish to seal. Repeat with remaining zucchini and fill- ing. Sprinkle ravioli with mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses, olive oil, salt and pepper. Bake for 30 minutes, until the zucchini is al dente and the cheese on top is turning golden brown. Serve with additional marinara sauce, Parmesan and fresh basil, if desired. Dairy — yields 14-16 ravi- oli. VANILLA CUPCAKES This quick and easy five-ingredient cupcake recipe is simple but really cute.
