Due to an injury, I'm not as active as I used to be and can't burn off the calories. Because I love Italian food, one of the first things I looked for was a low-fat lasagna. This meatless recipe is not only good, it's good for you. -E. Marie Goetz, Morgantown, Kentucky

SPINACH LASAGNA ROULADE
My family usually enjoys anything with spinach in it and this dish is no exception. In fact, my son wanted the leftovers to take to work with him! It is easy to prepare and, while we liked it just as is, it would also be good with ground beef added to the sauce.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 190C/fan 170C/gas 5 and line a Swiss roll tin (23 x 32cm) with baking paper. Cook the spinach in the microwave according to pack instructions (about 2 mins for each bag), then, when cool enough to handle, squeeze out as much juice as you can. Tip the spinach into a food processor and add the egg yolks, 1 tbsp fromage frais, plenty of seasoning and the flour. Blend until really finely chopped and well mixed.
- Whisk the egg whites until stiff, then fold into the spinach mixture. Spread in the tin and bake for 12-15 mins until firm to the touch. 3 Meanwhile, beat the rest of the fromage frais into the garlic & herb cream cheese until creamy. Put a sheet of baking paper on the work surface and dust with a little of the vegetarian parmesan.
- Turn the spinach mixture onto the work surface and carefully strip off the paper. Spread with the cheese mixture and scatter over the tomato. Roll up from the shortest end using the paper to guide you. Serve straight away

SPINACH ROULADE
A beautiful dish my mother has made often and it's always been a favorite. A cheesy spinach mixture rolled up in a cheese souffle, from the famous vegetarian Greens Restaurant in San Francisco. The recipe calls for ricotta, but I'm thinking unless you use fresh ricotta there won't be much flavor in the filling. So I plan on adding a few extra ingredients to give it some more umph. Like any ricotta and spinach mixture, it's easy to add onto!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400. Line a 10x15 baking sheet with parchment paper. Put a few dabs of butter on the pan to help anchor the paper then lightly butter and flour the paper, knocking off any extra flour.
- Separate the yolks and whites. Lightly beat the yolks and set them aside. Make a rue by melting the butter, add the flour, stirring constantly then whisk in milk. Cook another 3 minutes, remove from heat and add salt and pepper.
- Gradually whisk some of the mixture into the yolks to warm them, then return everything to the pot to finish combining.
- In a large bowl whisk or beat the egg whites with a pinch of salt (or cream of tartar) until they form smooth peaks.
- Stir about ¼ of the whites and ½ of cheese into the milk mixture, then gently fold in the rest of the whites.
- Pour soufflé mixture on the baking sheet spreading to all corners. Sprinkle to rest of the cheese over the surface. Bake until the top is nicely browned and puffed, about 15 minutes. Remove soufflé from the oven and let it cool. Turn over onto the counter and remove parchment paper. Use a tea towel under to help roll it later.
- Prepare soufflé base and set aside. Wash and cook spinach, seasoned with salt. Drain. Melt butter and cook onion. Squeeze water out of spinach and chop finely. Add to onions. Cook another few minutes.
- Thin ricotta with enough milk until soft and pliable and season with nutmeg and pepper. Preheat the oven to 400. Spread the ricotta over the soufflé and top with spinach. (This is where I plan on adding a bit more. Likely basil, gruyere cheese, sundried tomato and toasted pine nuts.).
- Roll the soufflé, short end first. Transfer to a greased baking sheet, end down to prevent unrolling. Brush the top with cream. Bake lightly covered for 25 minutes
- To serve, ladle sauce on plate and set sliced piece over sauce.

SPINACH LASAGNA
Equal parts indulgent and virtuous, this meatless lasagna from Mark Bittman will please everyone at the table. Serve it with a green salad on a weeknight, or alongside a platter of meatballs for Sunday dinner. And listen: We won't tell anyone if you use no-boil noodles or frozen spinach. It's all good either way.

Steps:
- If you're using dried pasta, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. If you're using fresh pasta sheets, cut them into long wide noodles approximately 3 inches by 13 inches, or a size that will fit into your lasagna dish. Cook the noodles (6 at a time for dried noodles) until they are tender but still underdone (they will finish cooking as the lasagna bakes); fresh pasta will take only a minute. Drain and then lay the noodles flat on a towel so they won't stick.
- Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Grease a rectangular baking dish with the olive oil, add a large dollop of tomato sauce and spread it around. Put a layer of noodles (use four) in the dish, trimming any overhanging edges; top with a layer of tomato sauce, one-third of the spinach, and one-fourth of the ricotta (use your fingers to spread it evenly), the mozzarella and the Parmesan. Season with salt and pepper if desired.
- Repeat the layers twice, and top with the remaining noodles, tomato sauce, ricotta, mozzarella and Parmesan; the top should be covered with cheese; add more ricotta and Parmesan as needed. (The lasagna may be made ahead to this point, wrapped tightly and refrigerated for up to a day or frozen. Bring to room temperature before proceeding.)
- Bake until the lasagna is bubbling and the cheese is melted and lightly browned on top, about 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and let rest a few minutes before serving, or cool completely, cover well, and refrigerate for up to 3 days, or freeze.

SPINACH LASAGNA
Traditional lasagna goes vegetarian when you substitute the meat for vegetables like spinach and zucchini. Layer this spinach lasagna with 3 types of cheese and bechamel sauce. You won't even miss the meat.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees with rack in middle position.
- Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. When oil shimmers, add onions and 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until translucent, 3 minutes. Add spinach, a few handfuls at a time, and cook, stirring frequently, until all spinach is wilted, 3-5 minutes. Transfer to a mesh strainer and press against spinach to remove as much liquid as possible.
- In a medium saucepan, melt butter over high heat. Add flour and cook, whisking constantly, until roux is golden brown, 1 minute. Add milk and continue whisking until milk begins to boil and thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon. Remove from heat and stir in Parmesan, nutmeg, 1 teaspoon salt, and black pepper. Cover surface with plastic wrap.
- Heat remaining 3 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and fry zucchini, turning once, until golden brown on both sides, 2 minutes per side. Transfer to paper towel-lined plate to drain and sprinkle with remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt.
- Spread 1 cup bechamel along the bottom of a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Place one-third of noodles over bechamel in a single, overlapping layer. Top with 1 cup bechamel and half of spinach. Repeat with a second layer of noodles, bechamel, and spinach. Top with remaining noodles, remaining bechamel, zucchini, mozzarella, and Pecorino Romano. Cover with foil and bake 45 minutes. Remove foil and continue baking until cheese is golden in places and lasagna is bubbling along the edges, about 15 minutes.
- Remove lasagna from oven and let stand 20 minutes before slicing and serving.
Tips:
- Use fresh spinach: Fresh spinach has a more vibrant flavor and color than frozen spinach. If using frozen spinach, be sure to thaw it completely and squeeze out any excess water.
- Don't overcook the spinach: Overcooked spinach will become mushy and lose its flavor. Cook it just until it is wilted, about 2 minutes.
- Use a good quality lasagna noodle: A good quality lasagna noodle will be made with durum wheat and will have a slightly rough texture. This will help the sauce and cheese adhere to the noodles.
- Don't overfill the lasagna roll-ups: If you overfill the lasagna roll-ups, they will be difficult to roll and will fall apart. Fill them just enough so that you can roll them up snugly.
- Bake the lasagna roll-ups until they are golden brown: This will ensure that the cheese is melted and bubbly and that the lasagna roll-ups are cooked through.
Conclusion:
Spinach lasagna roll-ups are a delicious and elegant dish that can be served for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. With a few simple tips, you can make sure that your spinach lasagna roll-ups turn out perfectly every time.
