LASAGNA ROLLS

JJ mentioned having Lasagna Rolls at school and thought "I want to try that".  Here is my recipe thrown together with ideas from recipes I found on Pinterest.

 Ingredients:
  • 1 lb lasagna noodles, cooked, drained and cooled
  • 1 jar Prego (or your favorite) spaghetti sauce
  • 1 lb hamburger
  • 1 onion
  • 1 tbsp minced garlic
  • 1 (small) can mushrooms
  • 1 (15 oz) container ricotta cheese
  • 1 egg
  • 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tbsp parsley flakes
  • 1/8 tsp pepper
  • 1 tsp garlic salt
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese, divided (1 1/2 cup for filling, 1/2 cup on top)
  • Olive Oil
  • Ground Oregano
  • Oregano Flakes
  • Parsley Flakes
  • Garlic Salt
  • Garlic Powder
  • Pepper
  • Salt


Instructions:

Preheat over to 350 degrees.

Cook lasagna noodles per package directions.  Do not over cook.  I left my al dente because they would be cooked more in the oven.

Drain noodles, cool, sprinkle with olive oil and set aside.
For sauce:

Add olive oil, ground beef, minced garlic and onion to pot.  Season to taste with salt, pepper, garlic salt & powder, parsley & oregano. Brown until cooked through.


Add jar of spaghetti sauce.  Season to taste with pepper, garlic salt, parsley & oregano.  Let simmer on low about 20 minutes.  Pour half of sauce into greased pan.


Mix ricotta cheese, egg, parmesan cheese, 1 tbsp parsley flakes, 1/8 tsp pepper, 1 tsp garlic salt and 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese.

Lay noodles flat and spread a spoonful of filling mixture onto noodles.

Roll up like a sleeping bag and place in the pan seam side down.

Top with remaining sauce and mozzarella cheese.  I also topped with a little more parmesan cheese.

Bake at 350 degrees for 30-40 minutes.

Very good, but a little dry.  It needs more sauce.  Next time, I would do 2 jars of spaghetti sauce.

PEANUT BUTTER RICE KRISPIE BARS My mother always put peanut butter into her Rice Krispie bars. When I made them when I was older I had to guess each time how much.  I finally figured out what worked and wrote it down so it wasn't a guessing game. People compliment me on these all the time when I bring them places.  They are not as cloyingly sweet as some Rice Krispie bars can be.  First, I always use the original Kellogg's Rice Krispie bar recipe, never a generic version.  The other versions tend to have the same amount of marshmallows, more butter,  but less rice krispies making them sweeter (to me, anyway).  I don't care what brand of rice krispies I use, I buy whatever is cheapest, but it has to be the original Kellogg recipe.  Second, I always add the peanut butter. They are just so much better that way! Because of the peanut butter, when I bring them places, I always tell people there is peanut butter in them (or label them) becaus...

Jesse & have been married for 19 years and counting and have lived together for 22 years now.  We were 18 & 20 years old when we started out and learned a lot about life, love and other things along the way.  We have two kids - Jaqi, age 18 and JJ (Jesse Jr.), age 15. We live in central Minnesota, about an hours drive north of the Twin Cities.  We have a dog named Kirby (after the great Kirby Puckett).  We have a large extended family that lives close so lots of family coming around or us going to family functions. Since our first years together, we have loved cooking!  We have different styles, but after all these years, have learned to work well together in the kitchen.  We cook together a lot, but also work alone in the kitchen to make meals for the whole family. This blog is meant as a way to share the...

CHICKEN ALFREDO BAKED ZITI We were going to visit relatives at their lake place and they wanted pasta for dinner, like Alfredo.  Jesse said I make really good red sauces, but have never made a great white sauce.  I kind of agreed - it just wasn't something I did often because when I had it wasn't really special enough to stand out. Never to be discouraged, I did a little research and found some recipes for Chicken Alfredo Baked Ziti.  Using ziti in a casserole version fit our purposes, rather than fettuccine with Alfredo sauce.  Using ideas from two pins  (see Pinspirations at bottom) , I created my own .  I made each component and stored them separately  overnight.  In the morning I layered them in a cake pan and packed them in the cooler to be made that evening in the oven. It was AWESOME!  They were all impressed, especially Jesse.  He's never been a huge fan of chicken or Alfredo because it tends to be bla...
