In a separate bowl combine ricotta cheese, Parmesan cheese, and seasoning to taste. Add optional pesto sauce if desired.
Preheat oven to 400°
Spread a thin layer of cheese mixture on each zucchini slice. Top with meat mixture. Roll up each zucchini noodle and place spiral side up into the baking dish. Push each new roll up against the others to help keep them rolled up.
