Spinach Lasagna Rolls

Submitted by LifeIsGood

"This is such an easy way to make lasagna. The noodles are individually rolled instead of layered. It's pretty enough to serve to guests! I really love this and hope that you do too. :-)"

Made these yummy lasagna roll-ups tonight for dinner. Once the pasta has been cooked, these rolls come together quickly. The only change I made was to omit the nutmeg. Served with a side salad.

Yum! We enjoyed these lasagna rolls for dinner last night and enjoyed them very much. I used fresh made ricotta from a local market and fresh spinach that I "chopped" in the food processor. Used Paul Newman's marinara sauce, which was very flavorful. Our only comment is that we could have got away with using a much smaller pan than 9x13; maybe even 8x8. Either way, we enjoyed our dinner. Thanks! Made for Spring 2013 PAC.

This was a great dinner and as you stated very easy to make. I really like this because I'm on my own now and don't need to go through all the fuss and muss of a layered lasagna and tons of left overs. I made 4 rolls(2 lunches and 2 dinners) For the sauce I used "Recipe#397795" # 397795, I served with garlic bread and salad. It was really enjoyed thank for posting.

This recipe was incredible!! I used fresh spinach, and alfredo sauce instead of frozen spinach and spaghetti sauce, but otherwise followed the directions to a tee! My fiancee's son did not like it whatsoever, but everyone else LOVED it!! Thanks so much for this great recipe! I think I am going to add some grilled chicken to the mix next time, as I think it would be fabulous that way as well!
