Florentine Lasagna Roll image

Found this in a supermarket checkout cookbook years ago and it's still a family favorite. One important step is getting the water removed from the spinach as much as possible; after I drain it and squeeze as much out by hand I wrap it in a 4 layer pad of paper towels and squeeze it some more. Save the paper towels and use them later to dry off the noodles so they don't slide all over, this makes it a lot easier to spread the filling. I have listed 2% cheese and 1/3 less fat cream cheese but it started out being made with the full deal, we don't notice any decrease in flavor (I've also made it without the egg a time or two when I ran out and it tastes the same and holds together OK). I also think the filling makes a good spinach dip if you leave out the egg. Cook time includes the 5 minute stand time.

I wish the recipe gave measurements for ingredients in grams so I wouldn't have to search for conversions separately.

This Florentine lasagna roll was just okay. The filling was a bit bland, and the prosciutto was too chewy. I probably won't make this again.

I'm not usually a fan of lasagna, but I really enjoyed this Florentine lasagna roll. The spinach and ricotta filling was light and fluffy, and the prosciutto added a nice salty flavor. The dish was also very easy to make.
