Food Hussy Recipe: Easy Vegetarian Lasagna Rollups

March 2, 2016 · FoodHussy · 2 Comments

You know all those Tasty videos that have bombarded our Facebook feeds – well every once in a while – they look pretty darned good – right? One of those that caught my eye was the lasagna roll ups. So I decided to try them out for myself. 

I think I did a pretty good job – Larry even liked them – which is a victory in itself – that is until he realized they had spinach in them! 🙂

First – I boiled my lasagna noodles – obviously to roll them – you have to use the boil ones – but I’ve tried the no-boil and just don’t care for them. They never seem to get all done to me – so I’ll stick with the old fashioned boiled ones.

Got my ingredients all lined up – spinach, ricotta, seasonings, cheese and spaghetti sauce. I was ready to assemble!

 First – I start by putting a bit of spaghetti sauce in the bottom of the baking dish. I used a jar sauce – I don’t really have a favorite – I like chunks of tomato – but I switch around. I really don’t buy sauce often because it kills my heartburn.

Then ricotta – I feel like I need to buy better ricotta – this is just the store brand but it doesn’t have that same texture as you get on pizza at a restaurant. It’s always got to be stirred up when you open it to mix that water in.

I spread a thick layer of ricotta onto one of the cooked lasagna noodles…

Then topped with spinach leaves…

Then I rolled it up! Super simple! 

Then I was thinking I might want some seasoning in there too – so I checked the cabinet and I had Italian Seasoning – so I grabbed it. I sprinkled it on top of the ricotta as I made the rest of the rollups.

As I finished each, I set them on top of the sauce in my baking dish. 
 Then I topped with cheese…
 More sauce…
 and more cheese. I love cheese. I need cheese. I hate when people skimp on it – JUST GIVE IT TO ME DAMMIT! Ok – maybe I just need a piece of cheese now…I get the shakes from not having it if you couldn’t tell. 

I baked for 20 minutes at 350 and then I broiled for a couple of minutes at the end just for the brown bubbly top.

This was a really quick to put together meal and we both enjoyed it. The other thing I like is how flexible it is – add sausage or vegetables or whatever you want – keep it simple – make it complex – swap the sauce – whatever you want!

Be sure to pin the recipe for later! I have a whole board of recipes I want to try – it’s like my own cookbook of just what I want!

    Hi, If there is liquid at the top you shouldn't stir it into the Ricotta. You should strained it through a cheesecloth. The less liquid the better. Especially in lasagna which can cause the cheese to run all over.
