How To Make Italian Sausage Lasagna Roll-Ups
Cook the lasagna noodles until al dente.
Brown the sausage and saute the garlic.
Make filling. Mix together the cottage cheese, eggs, oregano, red pepper flakes, half the mozzarella cheese, and all of the Parmesan cheese.
Spread filling on lasagna noodles and roll up.
Place them in a baking dish and cover with sauce and remaining mozzarella cheese.
Bake 15 minutes covered and 15 minutes uncovered.
Assemble Ahead Of Time
These Roll-Ups can be assembled ahead of time. Cover with foil and refrigerate for up to two days. Add 5 to 10 minutes onto the baking time.
For the pasta sauce I recommend Rao’s Roasted Garlic. It costs more than other brands, but it is so delicious and tastes like homemade.
Freezes Well
Freeze unbaked lasagna roll-ups for up to two months. Let them thaw in the refrigerator overnight before baking.
Can I Substitute Ground Beef?
Yes! Ground beef or even ground turkey can be used instead of Italian sausage.
Is It Spicy?
A half teaspoon of crushed red pepper flakes adds a little heat to this dish. For more heat, use “Hot” Italian sausage.
