1 large egg
16 ounces ground beef, 85% lean
12 lasagna noodles, cooked to package instructions
24 ounces marinara sauce
3 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 c. diced onion
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
15 ounces ricotta cheese
3 c. mozzarella cheese, shredded, divided
1/4 c. Parmesan cheese, shredded
1/4 c. parsley, chopped, plus more to garnish

1/2 teaspoon black pepper, or to taste
How to make Lasagna Roll-Ups
Step 1: Prepare the oven. Preheat it to 375 degrees F.
Step 2: Following the package directions, cook the noodles in a large pot of salted boiling water. When done, drain the noodles and fill the pot with cold water.
Step 3: Cook the ground beef in a deep pan or dutch oven on medium-high heat, breaking the meat apart using a spatula until the ground beef is no longer pink. Then, add the onion and cook for another 3 minutes until tender. Next, add the garlic, 1 teaspoon salt, half tsp pepper, and half tsp oregano. Saute for a minute more before adding in the marinara. Bring everything to a simmer, then turn the heat off. On the bottom of a casserole dish, spread a half cup of the meat sauce.
Step 4: Place the ricotta, 1 egg, 1/4 c. Parmesan cheese, 1 1/2 c mozzarella cheese, and 1/4 c parsley in a large bowl. Mix well until blended.
Step 5: Over a large baking sheet, arrange the noodles in a single layer. On top of each noodle, spread 1/4 c of the cheese mixture. In a strip down the middle of each noodle, add a heaping tablespoon of the meat sauce. Then, roll the noodles up and place them in the prepared casserole dish.
Step 6: On top of the roll-ups, spread the rest of the meat sauce and sprinkle with the rest of the mozzarella cheese. Tent the dish with foil, ensuring the foil is not touching the cheese.
Step 7: Place in the preheated oven and bake for about 40 minutes. Uncover and broil for about 2 to 3 minutes or until the cheese is lightly golden.
Step 8: Before serving, garnish with parsley. Enjoy!
