Easy Bake Lasagna Roll Ups (Print Version)
# Ingredients:
→ Pasta
01 -
12 cooked lasagna noodles (use the package guide)
→ Meat Sauce
02 -
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
03 -
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper, more or less to taste
04 -
1 teaspoon sea salt, or sprinkle as much as you like
05 -
3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
06 -
80 grams chopped onion
07 -
680 grams jarred marinara
08 -
455 grams 85% lean ground beef
→ Cheese Mixture
09 -
425 grams ricotta
10 -
1 big egg
11 -
25 grams grated parmesan
12 -
170 grams mozzarella, shredded
13 -
170 grams more mozzarella, for topping later
14 -
15 grams chopped parsley, save a bit for sprinkling on top
# Instructions:
01 -
Take off the foil, pop the dish under the broiler for 2 or 3 minutes until the cheese gets bubbly and a bit brown. Toss some fresh parsley over everything, grab a serving spoon, and enjoy while it's piping hot.
02 -
Heap the last of the meat sauce all over the rolled-up noodles. Scatter all that leftover mozzarella on top. Use foil to loosely cover the dish (don’t let it touch the cheese). Bake for 40 minutes.
03 -
Lay your noodles flat in a single layer. Spread a big spoon of cheese down each one. Spoon a messy line of meat sauce right down the middle of every noodle. Roll each one up. Place the rolls in your baking dish where you’ve already ladled some sauce on the bottom.
04 -
In a roomy bowl, mix ricotta, egg, parmesan, 170 grams mozzarella, and chopped parsley. Stir it up till it’s creamy and even.
05 -
Put a big deep pan over medium-high. Toss in the beef, break it apart, and cook until it’s all browned (about 2 minutes). Next, add chopped onion and let it turn soft for a few more minutes. Then throw in garlic, salt, pepper, and oregano. Give it a minute. Pour in marinara, simmer for a bit, then pull the pan off the heat.
06 -
Crank your oven to 190°C. Boil water in a big pot, salt it, then cook noodles like the box says. When they’re done, drain and pop them in cool water so they don’t all get stuck together.
# Notes:
01 -
To keep the noodles from sticking, set them out flat, one layer, on a baking tray while you get everything else together.

These lasagna rolls do great if you prep ahead. Cover and chill or toss in the freezer until you’re ready to bake.
