This recipe is absolutely fantastic! It tastes even better the next day... if you have the patience to wait!

 


Instructions

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

In a mixing bowl, combine ricotta, half of the mozzarella, half of the Parmesan, beaten egg, parsley, basil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly.

Spread a thin layer of marinara sauce on the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish.

Lay the cooked lasagna noodles on a clean surface. Spread about 2 tablespoons of the cheese mixture on each noodle.

Top the cheese mixture with about 2 tablespoons of cooked sausage.
Roll up each noodle carefully and place them seam-side down in the baking dish.

Evenly distribute the remaining marinara sauce over the roll-ups.
Sprinkle the rest of the mozzarella and Parmesan cheese on top.
Cover the dish with foil and bake for 25 minutes.

Remove the foil and bake for another 10 to 15 minutes, until the cheese is bubbly and golden.

Let the roll-ups rest for a few minutes before cutting and serving.

Tips and Variations

To make it vegetarian, replace the sausage with sautéed mushrooms or a combination of spinach and bell peppers.

For picky eaters, substitute the sausage with ground chicken or mild sausage.

Add a sprinkle of red pepper flakes to the cheese mixture for a bit of heat.

Gluten-free or whole wheat lasagna noodles can be used for dietary preferences.
