Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 7 whole-wheat lasagna noodles
  • 15 ounces part-skim ricotta
  • 2 tablespoons parsley (chopped)
  • 1 large egg
  • ¼ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • 16 ounces part-skim mozzarella cheese (shredded)
  • 4 cups homemade tomato sauce or any tomato sauce of your preference

Instruction

  • Bring a pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, add the lasagna noodles, and cook for the time indicated on the package. Drain the pasta, rinse, and transfer to a bowl.
  • Preheat oven to 375°F.
  • In a medium bowl, mix the ricotta cheese, parsley, egg, and Parmesan cheese. Stir well.
  • Ladle about 1 cup of homemade tomato sauce into a baking dish, and spread it well.
  • Start assembling your lasagna rollups by placing wax paper, aluminum foil, or a clean cutting board on the counter, and lay out lasagna noodles.
  • Spread about 3 tablespoons of the ricotta mixture first and then 2 tablespoons of the homemade tomato sauce over each individual lasagna noodle. Then, sprinkle with some mozzarella cheese.
  • Carefully roll up and place the seam side down in rows in the baking dish.
  • After that, use the remaining tomato sauce to top the lasagna rolls. Sprinkle with Parmesan and mozzarella cheese.
  • Bake covered with foil for approximately 30 minutes. Remove the foil, and bake for 15-20 minutes more until the cheese is melted.
