Spinach Lasagna Rolls


Looking back at my "resolutions" for this year....Meatless meals.  This is one of my favorites.  I love the spinach and cheese combo and for some reason I don't think one roll has a huge number of carbs so I consider this good skinny food to eat when I'm watching my carb intake.  I didn't change anything from the recipe.  If you like diet friendly meals you should check out the Skinnytaste site. I try a ton of recipes and haven't found one I don't like yet!

Spinach Lasagna Rolls

From: Skinnytaste

Ingredients:
9 lasagna noodles, cooked
10 oz frozen chopped spinach, thawed and completely drained
15 oz fat free ricotta cheese
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 egg
salt and fresh pepper
32 oz tomato sauce
1 cup part skim mozzarella cheese, shredded

Directions: 
Preheat oven to 350°. Combine spinach, ricotta, Parmesan, egg, salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Ladle about 1 cup sauce on the bottom of a 9 x 12 baking dish.

Place a piece of wax paper on the counter and lay out lasagna noodles. Make sure noodles are dry. Take 1/3 cup of ricotta mixture and spread evenly over noodle. Roll carefully and place seam side down onto the baking dish. Repeat with remaining noodles.

Ladle sauce over the noodles in the baking dish and top each roll with mozzarella cheese. Put foil over baking dish and bake for 40 minutes, or until cheese melts. Makes 9 rolls.
