Default Cheese-stuffed beef rolls (phase 1)

Make this the next time people come over for dinner, not only will they not know they're eating diet food, they'll ask you for the recipe! Buying roast beef from the deli can be expensive I found some that worked in the pre-packaged lunch meat section!

Cheese-Stuffed Beef Rolls

1 jar (15 ounces) spaghetti sauce (no sugar added)
1 egg, slightly beaten
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano, crumbled
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1 container (15 ounces) light ricotta cheese
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
1 cup shredded low-fat mozzarella
6 thin slices of lean deli roast beef (about 1/2 pound)
2 medium zucchini, sliced (about 3 cups)

Preheat oven to 375. Spread 1/2 cup spaghetti sauce in bottom of 8x12-inch baking dish. In a large bowl, thoroughly combine egg, seasonings, ricotta cheese, parmesan cheese, and 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese. Spoon equal amounts of cheese mixture on 1 end of each beef slice. Roll up beef slices jelly-roll style and arrange, seam-side down, in baking dish. Place zucchini along both sides of dish. Pour remaining spaghetti sauce over beef rolls and zucchini. Bake, covered, at 375 for 40 minutes or until heated through. Top beef rolls with remaining mozzarella cheese. Bake, uncovered, 3 minutes or until cheese is golden brown.

Serves 6

I made these last night.........yummm. But only 1 was not filling enough so I had 2!

I changed the recipe slightly in that I chopped up one of the zuchini and added it to the cheese mix cause it's the only way to get my dh to eat veges.
