Caprese Lasagna Roll-ups - lasagna noodles

Method

• Cook lasagna noodles according to package directions.
• Do not rinse!
• Just drain.. you need the stickyness of the starch to stay on the noodles to aid in rolling.
• Preheat oven to 375F
• Using a large baking sheet.. spread a thin layer of spagetti sauce over entire sheet.
• Set aside.
• Line work surface in wax paper or parchment paper.
• Lay out each noodle onto paper in a single file.
• Spread a couple tbl.
• Of ricotta mix along each noodle as pictured.
• Its ok if u dont cover the entire thing.
• Lay out a few slices of tomato across the ricotta.
• Leaving a small space between each and leaving a small space at each end.
• To make for easy rolling.
• Break apart small pieces of spinach and sprinkle accross tomatoes.
• Sprinkle basil across the length of the noodle.
• Just a light sprinkle.
• Do the same with the parmesan.
• Really as much as you would like.
• Gently but firmly.. starting at one end, roll the lasagna noodle up.
• Not to tight or it will all push out the sides.
• Transfer roll to on top of prepared baking sheet.
• Repeat until out of ingredients.
• Now spoon sauce over each roll, as much as u would like.
• But i did a big serving spoonful on each.
• Now sprinkle motzarella cheeese on top of each.
• About a small handful.
• More if u like more, but itll get messy if u put to much sauce/cheese.
• Again take the basil and parmesan and give another light sprinkle to the top of each roll..
• Bake in oven for 10-15 min.
• Closest to heat.
• Just long enough to heat it up and let the cheese melt.
• If the ricotta is starting to ooze out.. its done!
• :)
• Transfer to serving plates.
• And serve!
• I served mine with homemade garlic bread and a nice italian side salad.
• Enjoy!
