We love a good Italian dish in our family, but we try to keep pasta for a special occasion or weekend. You all know what happens when you eat a bit much pasta. 🙂

Zucchini Roll-Ups in a serving tray

A friend of mine shared this recipe with me and I knew I had to share it with you all. It’s simple to prepare and almost guilt free, gluten free for sure. It does reheat perfectly, so we were able to pack it for work lunch. Hope you love it as much as we did 🙂
