I love making lasagna and it is a dish that my boys really enjoy. I wanted to change it up a bit so I came up with these roll ups. I am sure it is not my original idea since there are so many awesome Mom’s out there! They are fun to make and to eat. It’s an easy recipe that you can get the kids involved in! Spencer loves to stick the toothpicks in the top since he couldn’t quite get the rolling part down. I actually made almost a double batch which is why there are so many in my pan pictured below. ENJOY!

Ingredients:

• Cooking Spray
• 12 lasagna noodles
• 1 cup of soft cheese (such as Alouette, I used Philidelphia Cooking Cremes)
• 1/2 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese
• 2 tablespoons of basil
• 1 1/2 cups of tomato sauce
• 1/4 cup of Parmeasan cheese

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 375
2. Coat a shallow baking pan with cooking spray
3. Cook your lasagna noodles according to the package directions.
4. Drain them and set them to the side. Be careful not to stir them to often or they will break when you are trying to work with them.
5. Next,  in a small bowl, combine the herbed cheese, mozzarella and basil then mix it well.
6. Lay your lasagna noodles out on a flat surface.
7. Spoon a thin layer of the cheese mixture onto each noodle. You don’t want to over load these.
8. Starting from one end, roll up the noodle and secure it with a toothpick.
9. Place rolls side by side in the pan
10. Pour the tomato sauce on top and then sprinkle them with parmesean cheese.
11. Bake for 20 to 30 minutes until cheese filling melts and the tops are golden brown.

I am a cheese lover and at first thought these needed more cheese than what I put in. However, once they were baked and I tasted them, it is actually enough. I am going to try them again with the standard mozzarella and ricotta one time. I know, I never make anything by the original recipe
