Ingredients

Scale

Lasagna Roll Ups

  • 8 no-boil lasagna noodles
  • 1 cup plant-based ricotta cheese
  • 1 1/2 cups fresh spinach, chopped
  • 1/2 cup smoked turkey bacon, crumbled
  • 1 tsp garlic (natural), minced or powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder (natural)
  • 1 tbsp vegetarian Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 cups marinara sauce (natural)
  • 1 cup shredded plant-based mozzarella cheese
  • 2 tbsp fresh basil (natural), chopped

Instructions

  1. Prepare the noodles: Cook the no-boil lasagna noodles according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and lay them flat on a clean surface to cool, prepping them for easy rolling.
  2. Make the filling: In a medium bowl, combine the plant-based ricotta cheese, chopped fresh spinach, crumbled smoked turkey bacon, garlic (natural), onion powder (natural), and vegetarian Worcestershire sauce. Stir well until evenly mixed for a flavorful, creamy filling.
  3. Assemble the roll ups: Spread a thin layer of the marinara sauce (natural) on the bottom of a baking dish. Take each noodle and spread a generous layer of the filling across it. Roll each noodle carefully, sealing the filling inside to create neat, stuffed cylinders.
  4. Arrange and top: Place each roll up seam-side down in the dish, leaving a little space between them. Spoon remaining marinara sauce (natural) over the tops and sprinkle with shredded plant-based mozzarella cheese and fresh basil (natural).
  5. Bake to perfection: Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 25-30 minutes, until the cheese is bubbling and lightly golden. Let cool slightly before serving to allow flavors to meld beautifully.

Notes

  • Don’t overstuff: Filling should be generous but not too thick to avoid cracking during rolling.
  • Use no-boil noodles: They save time and simplify the assembly process without sacrificing texture.
  • Layer sauce carefully: Spread a thin layer under the rolls to prevent sticking and keep everything moist.
  • Allow to rest: Let baked roll ups sit 5-10 minutes before serving for easier slicing and better flavor.
  • Customize fillings: Mix in chopped herbs or spices to make your signature flavor every time.
