Lasagne Rolls

"Adapted the recipe from one I found an old cookbook. This is a very flexible recipe, you can use almost any type of meat, and different sauces. Experiment with added vegetables/ cheeses/ spices and herbs! Can be prepared in advanced and frozen. This can also be fun to make with children, they enjoy getting messy and rolling them up!"

directions

  • Cook pasta according to package directions; drain and rinse under cold water until completely cool; drain thoroughly.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Squeeze as much water as possible from the thawed spinach.
  • In a large bowl, stir together the spinach, 8 oz mozzarella, ricotta, hamburger, and 1/2 cup of spaghetti sauce until thoroughly blended.
  • Salt and pepper to taste.
  • Line the bottom of an 11x7-inch baking dish with 1/2 cup tomato sauce.
  • Divide the mixture among the pasta, spooning the mixture down the center of each noodle.
  • Roll each noodle (like a jelly roll) arranging the rolls side by side in a baking dish.
  • Coat the shells with an even layer of the remaining tomato sauce.
  • Sprinkle with remaining mozzarella and Parmesan cheese, if desired.
  • Bake until the center of the rolls are heated through and the sauce is bubbling, about 40 minutes.
  • Let stand 10 minutes before serving.

  1. We really enjoyed this recipe! I used Paul Newman's Sockarooi Sauce and fresh spinach, basil, oregano and mozzarella cheese from the farmer's market. To make the roll-ups I placed the noodles on paper towels side-by-side in a few layers with a paper towel in between, spread and sprinkled like for "regular lasagne" then grabbed the end of each noodle and rolled it up. This way I didn't have to "aim"! Thanks for sharing this great recipe.
     
  2. Great Recipe. My 6 year old son loved helping stir the ingredients and stuffing and rolling the noodles. A great project to inspire a young chef. It tastes great too! Thanks!
     
  3. I actually had quite some fun with this recipe. My stove went out in the middle of cooking the noodles(I have/had a really old stove) So I had to do most of the cooking via microwave. It still turned out fantastic. I used sausage instead of hamburger and used fresh spinach instead of bagged...it turned out wonderful. I think ricotta cheese is the best in this recipe..I made a batch with cottage cheese and one with ricotta and the one with ricotta tasted much better. Thanks for the fantastic recipe...will be used again!
