Tips:

- To ensure the lasagna sheets are pliable and easy to roll, boil them for the exact time specified in the instructions. Overcooking can make them too soft and prone to tearing. - Use fresh crab meat for the filling to achieve the best flavor and texture. If using frozen crab meat, thaw it completely and drain off any excess moisture before using. - For a creamy and flavorful filling, use a combination of mascarpone cheese, ricotta cheese, and Parmesan cheese. Season the filling generously with salt, pepper, and garlic powder to enhance the taste. - Spread the filling evenly over the lasagna sheets to ensure that each roll-up is packed with flavor. Don't overload the sheets, or they might become difficult to roll and seal. - To prevent the roll-ups from unravelling during baking, secure them with toothpicks or by tying them with kitchen twine. - Bake the roll-ups until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the tops are golden brown. Overbaking can make the roll-ups dry and tough. - Serve the lasagna crab roll-ups immediately, garnished with fresh parsley or chives, and accompanied by a side salad or roasted vegetables for a complete meal.
