Ingredients
- 2 26oz jars Classico pasta sauce or 4 cups homemade pasta meat sauce
- 10 lasagna noodles
- 1/2 lb ground sausage spicy or regular
- 8 oz ricotta cheese
- 1/4 cup shredded parmesan cheese
- 3-4 cups shredded mozzarella cheese divided
- 1 large egg
- 1 cup baby spinach chopped
Instructions
- Prepare homemade sauce if using one. Recipe on my blog for Pasta Meat Sauce.
- Cook lasagna noodles as directed on package. Rinse, drain and spread out on parchment lined baking sheets.
- Crumble and brown sausage, drain grease. Place sausage in a medium sized bowl. Add the ricotta, parmesan, 1 cup of mozzarella cheese, egg, and spinach. Stir ingredients to combine well.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a large baking dish with no stick cooking spray. Spread 1 cup of the sauce over bottom of the dish.
- Divide the sausage-cheese mixture evenly between the noodles. I used 2 heaping Tablespoons on each. Spread mixture over each noodle. Beginning at one end, tightly roll each noodle up and then arrange them on the sauce. Top each roll-up evenly with remaining sauce. Sprinkle 1 cup of mozzarella cheese over the sauce.
- Bake 45-55 minutes, until bubbly. Remove from the oven about 5 minutes prior to end of baking and top with the remaining mozzarella. Return to oven to melt cheese.
