Instructions

Cook lasagna noodles in salted water 2 minutes less than package directions call for and rinse with cold water.

Preheat oven to 375°F.

In a bowl whisk the egg, ricotta, 1/4 cup parmesan, Italian herbs, salt 1/2 cup mozzarella and broccoli or spinach to combine.

Place 1/4 cup of the marinara sauce on the bottom of a 9×11 inch baking dish.

Spread 1/3 cup of the ricotta mixture on each lasagna noodle, covering the sheet and roll up jelly roll style.

Place the lasagna rolls seam side down in the baking dish and top with remaining marinara sauce and 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese and 1/4 cup parmesan cheese.

Cover the dish with foil and bake for 30 minutes.

Uncover and continue to cook until cheese is golden brown and bubbly, about 15 minutes. Allow to cool slightly, then serve.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Prevent Soggy Rolls 💧
Slightly undercook your lasagna noodles (al dente) so they remain firm when rolling and don't turn mushy during baking. Pat them dry with paper towels before filling to remove excess moisture.
Cheese Mixture Binding 🧀
Add the beaten egg to your ricotta-mozzarella mixture as a binder to keep the filling cohesive and prevent it from leaking during cooking. This creates a creamy texture that won't separate.
Spinach Moisture Management 🥬
If using fresh spinach, squeeze it thoroughly in a clean kitchen towel to remove excess water, which prevents the rolls from becoming watery and diluting your filling flavors.
Strategic Sauce Layering 🍅
Reserve marinara sauce to coat the bottom of your baking dish and top the rolls—this prevents sticking and ensures even heating while keeping the rolls moist without oversaturating them.
Freeze and Reheat Strategy ❄️
Cool rolls completely before freezing, then wrap individually in plastic wrap and foil to prevent freezer burn; reheat from frozen at 350°F for 25-30 minutes, covered, for optimal texture and flavor retention.
