If you're like me you spend most of the day trying to think "What's for dinner?". Sometimes I want to try something new or even just remember a good family favorite. I created this blog as a quick and easy way to help jog my memory and to share our family favorites across the web. My sister-in-law Marie and I post some of our most successful recipes with pictures. Bon Appetite!

Spinach Lasagna Roll-ups


Okay, I'm a sucker for recipe books with pictures, especially the ones that you can find at the check out lines, of course at least 70% of the recipes have to look good in order to buy the book. I found a book the other day by Taste of Home. I made this dinner tonight and it was great!

Serves about 6 adults

12 uncooked lasagna noodles
2 eggs, lightly beaten
2 1/2 cups ricotta cheese
2 1/2 cups (10 oz) shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 pkg (10 oz) frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
1 jar (26 oz) meatless spaghetti sauce

Cook lasagna noodles according to package directions; drain. Meanwhile in a large bowl, combine the eggs, cheeses, spinach, salt, pepper, and nutmeg. Spread 1/3 cup cheese mixture over each noodle; carefully roll up.

Pour 1 cup spaghetti sauce into an ungreased 13 in x 9 in x 2 in baking dish. Place roll-ups seam side down over sauce. Top with remaining sauce. Bake, uncovered, at 375 degrees for 20 - 25 minutes or until heated through.

ENJOY!!
