Spinach Lasagna Rollups

I have been making these rollups for a while but for some reason have never blogged about them!
While they are not a true lasagna they do use all of the same elements and is a little bit more friendly! These are not as time consuming either!

I've made different variations of these as well but this recipe is the one I make the most! I actually froze the one I took pictures of so that is why there is no cheese on top!

This would make a great meatless meal for those of us celebrating Lent!





Spinach Lasagna Rollups

recipe adapted from this recipe at Skinny Taste


Ingredients: 
  • 9 lasagna noodles, cooked
  • 10 oz frozen chopped spinach, thawed and completely drained
  • 15 oz fat free ricotta cheese 
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 egg
  • salt and fresh pepper
  • 32 oz spaghetti sauce
  • 1 cup mozzarella cheese,shredded

Directions: 


    1. Preheat oven to 350°. 
    2. Combine spinach, ricotta, Parmesan, egg, salt and pepper in a medium bowl. 
    3. Ladle about 1 cup of spaghetti sauce on the bottom of a 9 x 13 baking dish.
    4. Place a piece of wax paper on the counter and lay out lasagna noodles. Make sure noodles are dry. Take 1/3 cup of ricotta mixture and spread evenly over noodle.
    5.  Roll carefully and place seam side down onto the baking dish. Repeat with remaining noodles.
    6. Ladle sauce over the noodles in the baking dish and top each one with mozzarella cheese. (If making into a freezer dish, stop at this point and let dish cool and don't add cheese on top.)
    7.  Put foil over baking dish and bake for 40 minutes, or until cheese melts.
    8. Enjoy!
