Lasagna Spirals

Tonight was our 2nd time making these and we love them! We freeze them on a cookie sheet and once frozen, seal them up 4 to a seal-a-meal pack for the DH and me. Before going to work, I pour the sauce into a dish, put in the four frozen spirals and pop them into the refrigerator to defrost while I'm at work. Such a quick and easy meal to put on the table that night.

VERY good recipe! I actually doubled it and did one pan using the noodles and one pan using eggplant: slice the eggplant lengthwise about 1/4 inch thick, brush with olive oil and broil 2-3 minutes on each side, then add filling and roll up like you did with the lasagna noodles. I liked that version even better! I also "slimmed" the recipe down using fat free ricotta (I actually used a mixture of half ricotta/half cottage cheese), low fat mozzarella and Eggbeaters. It still tasted rich and my family just raved about it! Definitely a keeper!

I have been making these for years. I make a bechamel sauce and put that on the bottom of the casserole dish, top with the lasagna rolls, and then top with marinara sauce and cheese for a nice dinner that is perfect for company. I always use frozen spinach with this, so it never is tastes like it has too much spinach. If I freeze them, I do it without sauces.

I just made these, cooked them and now they're freezing for a later dinner. I cut the recipe in 1/2, or rather, I made this one and one with alfredo sauce replacing the pasta sauce, just for a different taste. Since Mouette mentioned "a little too spinachy", I headed that (with an 8 year old) and used 1/2 cooked, chopped broc., which is a great thing to my broc. loving family. Thanks to you for posting and to Mouette for the helpful heads up! Oh, and I always have fun with lassagna-type dishes too, getting right "down and dirty" and coming up with a lovely meal. :D I have a hayday with cabbage rolls as well.

Good recipe. Next time I think I'll add some other spices though. It was a little bland for my tastes.
