LASAGNA ROLL UPS

Lasagna roll ups is one of the gourmet pasta dishes you need to try. It is super yummy, cheesy and meaty. For our family, we have another reason why we love this savoury pasta dish.

Pasta has always been our staple next to rice. With a very fulfilling feature and a subtle taste, the pasta is a blank canvass for the flavors we want to try. We love trying different pasta sauces like seafood marinara, pesto, aglia oglio, and many more. We usually use the usual spaghetti pasta noodle for our experiments.

So far, all of our pasta experiments are so great that everyone in the house loved them. But since we are many in the house, the last one to get their part of the pasta is the “lugi” one. That person has been left with a lesser portion than the others. We kind of tried to portion them beforehand but that strategy does not work all the time.

I have seen this lasagna roll up recipe for quite a time in Facebook. With our pasta dilemma, having an “already portioned” pasta will help save us time to think of a solution on portioning.

Since we are 9 in the house, I always aim to make 2 baking dishes of this lasagna roll ups so each of us can have 2 servings. With the two servings, all of us are really full!

If you are also having portioning dilemmas, or simply wanna know how to make some lasagna roll ups, simply read and follow the easy recipe below. Happy cooking!

HOW TO MAKE LASAGNA ROLL UPS

This pasta recipe requires more time and effort than your usual spaghetti pasta. It’s more fun to do when you have someone with you and use this as a bonding time!

Start by boiling your lasagna noodles. Just like your regular pasta, cook them according to packaging instructions. Most lasagna noodles packs contain 10 – 20 noodles. In this recipe, we only need 9 (or more, depending on the baking dish you’ll use).

For this recipe, we are going to prepare three types of sauces– the red sauce, the white sauce and the cream cheese mixture.

Let’s start with the red sauce. This sauce is similar to your spaghetti sauce, but is meatier and chunkier. Simply saute the aromatics, ground beef and then add the tomato sauce. When simmered well, set aside.

The white sauce is a milk-based and a cheesy one. Start by melting the butter before adding the milk and other seasonings. Lastly, add the cheese and cook until it melts. Make sure to use low heat to prevent the milk from scorching.

For the cream cheese mixture, simply combine the cream cheese, parsley and cheddar cheese. You can add more herbs and spices if you like.

The slightly tedious part of this recipe is rolling them noodles up. First, spread the cream cheese mixture and then the red sauce. Be careful on putting too much since it will be hard to roll them up. The filling must be generous enough but is also just right not to burst when rolled.

Make a layer of the red sauce in the baking dish before arranging the rolled lasagna. Add another layer of the red sauce, then the white sauce. Lastly, top the dish with grated mozzarella cheese. Bake the dish just until the cheese melts.

Top the lasagna roll ups with some parsley right before serving. Enjoy!
