If you too are a fan of lasagna, you will want to add this super tasty meal to your menu list like right now, not later. You can thank me later, ha ha.

I love putting a spin on classic dinners. This spin is here to stay, just ask my family. I made a couple batches of these rollups so I could have extras in the freezer. They were so darn tasty and will be perfect when we need to serve a crowd for a party or potluck.

My hubby is not a fan of ricotta so I was able to make him a meaty mozzarella version of these little guys. He commented on how perfect the rollups are for customizing for each persons liking. We have a couple kiddos who refuse onions so I left onions out of their roll-ups. PERFECT! When I make traditional pan lasagna, there is no leaving this or that out of the equation. Plus, traditional pans are more difficult to serve and definitely more messy.

I served our Lasagna Roll-ups with a side salad and some garlic bread with our Homemade Garlic Spread. Our meal was perfect.

If you would like to make this super easy Italian dinner, you will need lasagna noodles, ground beef, your favorite store bought or Homemade Spaghetti Sauce, ricotta cheese, mozzarella cheese, parmesan cheese, egg, and some other misc spices. The recipe is super easy and comes together quite quickly.
