Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 pieces lasagna noodles
- 2 cups ricotta cheese
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 0.5 cups grated Parmesan cheese
- 10 ounces frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoons garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoons ground black pepper
- 3 cups marinara sauce
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Cook the lasagna noodles in a large pot of salted boiling water as per the package instructions. Drain and lay them flat on a lightly oiled piece of parchment paper to prevent sticking.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, 1 1/2 cups of shredded mozzarella, Parmesan cheese, spinach, egg, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
Spread 1 cup of marinara sauce evenly on the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish.
Lay a lasagna noodle flat on a clean surface. Spread approximately 2-3 tablespoons of the cheese and spinach filling evenly along the length of the noodle. Roll it up tightly from one short end to the other.
Place the rolled lasagna spiral seam-side down into the prepared baking dish. Repeat with the remaining noodles and filling.
Once all the spirals are arranged in the dish, pour the remaining 2 cups of marinara sauce evenly over the top of all the rolls.
Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of shredded mozzarella over the marinara sauce.
Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes.
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Let the lasagna spirals rest for about 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy your delicious Lasagna Spirals!
