Cheesy Spinach Lasagna Roll-Ups image

Simpler to make than a pan of lasagna, and so pretty to serve!

Provided by By Betty Crocker Kitchens

Categories     Entree

Time 1h20m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 11

8 uncooked lasagna noodles
1/2 lb lean ground turkey
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 jar (26 oz) tomato pasta sauce
2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
1/2 teaspoon fennel seed, if desired
1 cup part-skim ricotta or cottage cheese
1/2 cup shredded carrot (1 small)
1 box (9 oz) frozen spinach, thawed, drained and squeezed dry
2 egg whites or 1 egg
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (4 oz)

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350°F. Cook lasagna noodles as directed on package. Drain; rinse with hot water.
  • Meanwhile, in 10-inch skillet, cook ground turkey and garlic over medium-high heat, stirring frequently, until turkey is no longer pink; drain, if necessary. Stir in pasta sauce, Italian seasoning and fennel. Reduce heat to low; simmer uncovered about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • In small bowl, mix ricotta cheese, carrot, spinach and egg whites. Spread each cooked lasagna noodle with generous 1/4 cup spinach filling to within 1 inch of one short end. Roll up firmly toward unfilled end.
  • Reserve 1 1/2 cups sauce. In ungreased 12x8-inch (2-quart) glass baking dish, pour remaining sauce. Arrange roll-ups, seam side down, in sauce. Pour reserved sauce over roll-ups.

Tips:

  • Prepare the spinach filling in advance: You can make the spinach filling up to 3 days ahead of time. Just store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator until you're ready to use it.
  • Use fresh lasagna noodles: Fresh lasagna noodles will cook more evenly and have a better texture than dried noodles.
  • Don't overcook the lasagna noodles: Cook the lasagna noodles until they are al dente, or slightly firm to the bite. Overcooked noodles will be mushy and difficult to roll up.
  • Use a light touch when rolling up the lasagna: Be careful not to roll the lasagna too tightly, or it will be difficult to cut. Roll it just tight enough to hold the filling in place.
  • Bake the lasagna until it is heated through: The lasagna should be baked until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the sauce is hot and bubbly.

Conclusion:

Healthy Spinach Lasagna Roll-Ups are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner or a special occasion. They are packed with spinach, ricotta cheese, and Parmesan cheese, and they are topped with a creamy tomato sauce. These lasagna roll-ups are sure to be a hit with everyone at your table.
