Check out my rolled lasagna creation - it's a fun twist on the classic Italian dish that always gets rave reviews. Each roll is stuffed with a tasty mix of ricotta, mozzarella and seasoned ground turkey. They taste even better the next day, if you can wait that long!

Fresh Creative Twist

What I love about these rolled lasagnas is how they pack all the traditional flavors but with a fun, clever presentation. Each lasagna sheet gets rolled around a creamy filling, making individual portions that are super easy to serve. The combo of turkey, cheeses and marinara sauce makes a comforting meal that everyone in the family goes crazy for.

What You'll Need For The Rolls

  • 12 lasagna sheets: Regular or gluten-free work fine
  • 500g ground turkey: Lean and flavorful, perfect for stuffing
  • 250g ricotta cheese: For that smooth, creamy filling
  • 200g shredded mozzarella: Split between filling and topping
  • 50g grated parmesan: For that bold flavor kick
  • 1 beaten egg: To bind everything together
  • 500ml marinara sauce: Homemade is my first choice
  • Seasonings: Garlic powder, dried basil, oregano, salt and pepper

Easy Step-By-Step Method

Getting ready
I heat my oven to 190°C and cook the lasagna sheets, then lay them out on parchment paper.
Cooking turkey
I brown the ground turkey over medium heat until it's fully cooked, then drain off any extra fat.
Making filling
In a bowl, I mix together the ricotta, mozzarella, parmesan, egg, seasonings and cooked turkey.
Rolling up
I spread a thin layer of filling on each lasagna sheet, gently roll it up, and place it in my baking dish.
Topping off
I pour marinara sauce over everything and sprinkle the remaining mozzarella on top.
Baking time
I cover with foil and bake for 20 minutes, then another 15 minutes uncovered to get that golden top.
Wrapping up
I let it cool for a few minutes before bringing it to the table.

Tasty Twists

I often switch things up with this recipe. Sometimes I swap turkey for beef or Italian sausage for extra richness. I'll throw in veggies like spinach or zucchini in the filling too. For an extra creamy version, I sometimes mix Alfredo sauce with my marinara. It's really a dish you can play around with however you want!

Frequently Asked Questions

→ Can I make these roll-ups in advance?
Definitely! Prep them a day ahead and keep them in the fridge. If cooking cold, add 5–10 extra minutes in the oven.
→ How do I stop the noodles from sticking?
Lay the cooked noodles apart on parchment paper. A light coat of olive oil can also help keep them from sticking.
→ Is this dish freezer-friendly?
Yes, freeze these for up to three months. Wrap them tightly, and thaw overnight in the fridge before baking.
→ Can I use a different meat?
Sure! Swap turkey with ground chicken or beef. Just drain off any grease after cooking.
→ What should I pair this with?
Serve with a fresh green salad and some garlic bread. Let the roll-ups sit for five minutes before serving so the filling sets nicely.
