Healthy Zucchini Roll-Ups Ingredients:

  • 1/2 avocado, diced
  • 1/2 cucumber, cut into thin matchsticks
  • 1 tsp. toasted sesame seeds
Directions:
  1. Using a vegetable peeler, slice each zucchini into thin flat strips. Place zucchini on a paper towel-lined plate to sit while you prep the rest of your ingredients.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine cream cheese, Sriracha, and lime juice.
  3. On a cutting board, lay 2 zucchini slices down horizontally (so that the long side is facing you). Spread a thin layer of cream cheese on top, then top the left side with a pinch each of crab, carrot, avocado, and cucumber.

  3. Lightly flour work surface. Stretch and roll pizza dough into a rectangle, dusting the dough with flour if needed.
  4. Spread a thin layer of tomato sauce over dough, leaving a 1-inch border along one long side. Repeat with a layer of mozzarella and then pepperoni.
