The first photo is before it was cooked, the following one is after it was cooked:
Ingredients:
1 package of lasagna noodles
1 jar of marinara sauce
container of mushrooms
1 package of frozen spinach
1 yellow onion
3 cloves of garlic
1 egg
1 small container of ricotta cheese
1 package of mozzarella cheese
2 9×13 pans
Directions:
Prepare lasagna noodles by following the directions on the box. Slice the mushrooms, onion and garlic and saute in a pan with some olive oil. Prepare the spinach as directed on box. When the mushroom mixture and the spinach are ready, combine in a bowl with the ricotta cheese, half the bag of mozzarella, and the egg. Once the noodles have been cooked, lay them out individually and spread some of the spinach/cheese mixture onto each one. Then roll them up, pour some sauce on top and cover with remaining mozzarella. Pour some sauce on the bottom of the pan, then place the roll ups in the pan, cover and bake on 350′ for about 45 minutes.

supuer cute initiative…. Thanks!!!
Very tasty, thanks!
Great recipe but using manicotti instead of lasanga would be simpler.
Actually, I have tried it with Manicotti and found it to be difficult to stuff the pasta without tearing into it. Rolling the Lasagna was so easy in comparison!
I agree, this is a very clever idea and a solution to the fragile manicotti and mess that it makes when you try and stuff them. Delicious! Thanks.
How large a bag of Mozzarella cheese, please? This looks great for the kids! I wish I could eat it – I can’t have dairy.
It depends on how cheesy you like it! I usually use 1 regular sized bag but you could buy a family sized pack and freeze the leftover cheese if that’s easier for you. I was off dairy when I first started nursing my son, and it was really tough! I would have meat lasagna instead, like this recipe here: http://www.kosherinthekitch.com/?p=695
a whole package of lasanga noodles?? how many in a pack???
I cook a box of lasagna noodles and make two pans out of it. (A serving would be one noodle rolled up so prepare as many as you would like.)
Can I use the pre-cooked lasagna?
I have used the pre-cooked lasagna noodles for lasagna but not for this recipe. If you try it let me know how it comes out!
