Lasagna Rollups are a fun and tasty way to serve lasagna. Of late they have been popping up on foodie websites and for good reason. They are very pretty to look at and I assure you they are as tasty as they look. Unlike traditional lasagna, these rollups come in a variety of different fillings. Many have been “lighten” up so that they can be easily rolled.

This time, I stayed with the traditional filling of ground beef, ricotta cheese, and tomato basil pasta sauce as these Lasagna Rollups were made for our church potluck. It was really easy to serve as there was no need to cut. Each person just scoop up a roll onto their dish. For a regular meal at home, I would prepare two or three rolls per person depending on the other dishes being served together with it.

For a quick fix, I used store bought tomato and basil pasta sauce. They usually come in a 24 ounces (675g) jar which was barely enough for a tray of these rollups. One more cup (8 ounces) of sauce would have been perfect. Still it was pretty moist. Please use your own favorite pasta sauce if you prefer.

I like it topped with extra chopped Italian parsley and a sprinkling of chili flakes. Some freshly grated parmesan would be nice too. Do give it a try.

    What kind of lasagna noodles do you use? I have only found the flat ones and am interested in the ribbed ones.

      I think I bought this package of noodles at Cub Foodss. It is bronze cut and so it absorbs flavors better.
