- Make sure the filling is well-seasoned: The filling is the star of the show in these lasagna roll-ups, so be sure to season it well with salt, pepper, and your favorite Italian herbs.
- Roll the lasagna sheets tightly: To prevent the lasagna roll-ups from unravelling, roll them up tightly. You can use a toothpick or skewer to secure the roll-ups if necessary.
- Bake the lasagna roll-ups until golden brown: The lasagna roll-ups should be baked until they are golden brown and bubbly. This will ensure that they are cooked through and the cheese is melted and gooey.
- Serve the lasagna roll-ups with your favorite sauce: The lasagna roll-ups can be served with a variety of sauces, such as marinara sauce, Alfredo sauce, or pesto sauce. You can also top the lasagna roll-ups with additional cheese, such as Parmesan or mozzarella cheese.
