Caprese Lasagna Roll-ups instructions
- 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 375°F.
- 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!.
