Lasagna Roll-Ups

I love lasagna roll-ups. They are so easy to make. Scroll down for more Lasagna Roll-Up Recipes I love. I find Lasagna Roll-Ups are much easier to make than a whole lasagna and they have a shorter baking time. Plus the presentation is fantastic!

Make Ahead Of Time

These Pepperoni Lasagna Roll-ups can be made up to 24 hours in advance. Cover with foil and refrigerate until ready to bake and add about 5 to 10 minutes onto the cooking time since they will be going into the oven cold.

Ingredients Needed

Cook Noodles To Al Dente

Be careful not to overcook the noodles or they will tear when you form the roll-ups. They will cook a little more in the oven.

Substitutions and Additions

  • Cottage Cheese can be used instead of ricotta cheese.
  • Add sauteed onion and or mushrooms and bell pepper to the filling for more flavor.

Storage

Leftovers will keep for 4 to 5 days in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Reheat in a microwave. Freezes well for up to 2 months. Thaw in the refrigerator overnight and add a little time to the cooking time.

Increase or Reduce Spiciness

To increase the spiciness, add an extra 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon of crushed red pepper flakes to the ricotta mixture. If you want to reduce the spiciness, leave the red pepper flakes out. The pepperoni will add a little spiciness.
