Lasagna Rolls
Ingredients
- 9 lasagna noodles (I cook 1 extra in case they tear while boiling)
- 1 egg
- 16 ounces ricotta cheese (I used part skim ricotta)
- 1/2 cup parmesan cheese, divided
- 1 teaspoon Italian herbs
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 cup cooked and finely chopped spinach and/or broccoli
- 1 1/2 cups marinara sauce
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese, divided
Instructions
- Cook lasagna noodles in salted water 2 minutes less than package directions call for and rinse with cold water.
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- In a bowl whisk the egg, ricotta, 1/4 cup parmesan, italian herbs, salt 1/2 cup mozzarella and broccoli or spinach to combine.
- Place 1/4 cup of the marinara sauce on the bottom of a 9×11 inch baking dish.
- Spread 1/3 cup of the ricotta mixture on each lasagna noodle, covering the sheet and roll up jelly roll style.
- Place the lasagna rolls seam side down in the baking dish and top with remaining marinara sauce and 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese and 1/4 cup parmesan cheese.
- Cover the dish with foil and bake for 30 minutes.
- Uncover and continue to cook until cheese is golden brown and bubbly, about 15 minutes.
- Serve.
- * You can also prepare the dish through step 6, cover and freeze. When ready to eat, bake for 45 minutes covered and 15 minutes uncovered.
- ** To prepare as a baked lasagna, following directions through step 4. Layer sheets of lasagna in a 9x11 inch pan followed by 3 sheets of lasagna, ricotta mixture alternating using all of the ingredients and topping with marinara. Top with mozzarella and bake covered for 30 minutes and uncovered for 15 more minutes until golden and bubbly. Allow to rest for 5 minutes and cut into squares.
