Easiest Ever Lasagna Roll Up Recipe

Sharing is caring!

This is an easy recipe I’ve been wanting to try for a very long time. I mean, years!

Lasagna is one of my husband’s favorite meals. He adores it and honestly I just don’t make it enough.

Have you ever thought to roll up the noddles to make individual servings instead of making it like a large casserole? Let me show you how super easy this is to make! (It is so simple the 6 year old helped me make it. He calls himself my little cooker! He loves helping me cook the hamburger meat!)

(And it pairs perfectly with a side salad and bread.)

Start a large pot of water on the stove to boil for the noddles.

In a large casserole dish, sprinkle the bottom of the pan with about 1/2 cup of the spaghetti sauce.

Use the back of a spoon to spread and coat the bottom of the pan evenly.

Add the lasagna noodles to the boiling water and cook for 8 minutes.

Meanwhile, in a medium bowl add the egg and the ricotta and whisk until smooth.

Add the leaves of the oregano.

Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Mix well.

After the lasagna noodles have cooked for 8 minutes, remove them from the heat and drain. I also like to rinse them in cold water to stop the cooking process.

Now, flatten out your noodles on a flat work space.

Evenly add a layer of the ricotta cheese mixture over each noodle as shown below.

Next add a spoonful of meat evenly over the ricotta cheese.

  1. This looks yummy and easy to make. My husband and I both like lasagna but I usually cheat and buy stouffers. I will have to give this a try, homemade is always better. Pinning!

  2. This is such a smart idea. I love how easily lasagna comes together this way. It’s now one of our favorite ways to enjoy it.

  3. Genius! This is the answer to “messy” lasagna! I just hate it when you scoop up the lasagna and all the filling runs out. This is perfect!
