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.

HAMBURGER GRAVY Being a gloomy Saturday, Jesse & I were too lazy to go out to the grocery store, so had to come up with a dinner with what we had on hand.  This is a favorite and is made often in our household.  So easy to make, but very tasty.  I never make this recipe the same way twice because I use whatever I have on hand.  The basics are ground beef, browned with onions and minced garlic.  Add some kind of liquid: beef broth, milk, cream of mushroom (with milk added), etc. Get it simmering and add a thickening agent.  This time we had no beef broth or bouillon, so used a brown gravy packet mixed with water and added a little chicken broth to that.  Also added some milk.  When you use just broth, it is a lighter gravy.  If you add milk and/or cream of mushroom, it is a little creamier.  You can even add a little sour cream and make it a little more like stroganoff.  Serve over egg noodles, rice, mashed potatoes, toast or ...
FIRE CRACKERS I got the recipe from here:  http://www.food.com/recipe/fire-crackers-423316 1 lb unsalted saltine crackers (4 sleeves) 1 cup canola oil 1 (1 oz) package ranch dressing mix 2 tbsp crushed red pepper flakes 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder Line crackers on ends (like dominoes) in an air-tight container. In a small bowl, mix oil, dressing mix, peppers and garlic powder.  Stir until ingredients are well mixed.  Continue to stir to prevent the peppers from settling on the bottom of the bowl. Spoon mixture over crackers, like drizzling icing on a cake. Close lid tightly and flip the container over every 5 minutes for 20 minutes.  Lightly shake back and forth to make sure all the crackers are coated.  Store in a Ziploc bag.  Will keep for about a week. Pretty tasty!  Jaqi & Jesse like them too!
