Using a vegetable peeler or mandoline slicer, thinly slice the zucchini lengthwise into long ribbons. You should get approximately 20 ribbons. Set aside on a paper towel to remove excess moisture.
Peel the carrot and use the peeler to continue creating thin ribbons. If the carrot is too narrow, cut small thin matchsticks instead. Set aside.
Slice the red bell pepper into very thin strips about 2-3 inches long. Repeat the same with the cucumber.
In a small bowl, mix the softened cream cheese with lemon juice, chopped fresh dill, salt, and black pepper. Stir until smooth and well combined.
Lay a zucchini ribbon flat on a cutting board. Spread a thin layer of the cream cheese mixture along one side of the ribbon.
Place a few pieces of carrot, bell pepper, and cucumber at one end of the zucchini ribbon. Roll the zucchini tightly around the vegetables, securing the roll with a toothpick or small skewer.
Repeat this process with the remaining zucchini ribbons and vegetables until all rolls are assembled. Arrange the rolls on a serving platter.
Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 2 hours before serving. Enjoy these fresh and crunchy low carb vegetable rolls!
