Ingredients
- 6 lasagna noodles
- 1 cup ricotta cheese - skim or low fat
- 1 egg
- ½ cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- ¼ cup chopped basil
- ¼ cup chopped parsley
- ¼ teaspoon Fine Pink Salt

- 1 cup mushroom slices
- 1 jar - 25 oz no sugar low sodium tomato pasta sauce (divided)
- ¼ cup shredded mozzarella - or parmesan cheese for topping
Instructions
- Prepare lasagna noodles according to package directions. Drain, separate cooked noodles and lay on wax paper to keep them from sticking. [Note: if not preparing immediately, also cover them with wax paper or plastic wrap so they don’t dry out.]
- Preheat oven to 375ºF. Spray 8x8 baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. In small mixing bowl, combine ricotta, egg, parmesan cheese, herbs, salt and pepper.
- Spread one cup of the jarred pasta sauce on bottom of baking dish.
- Cut the noodles in half lengthwise and spread cheese mixture evenly on the noodles. Layer with spinach leaves and mushroom slices, if desired.
- Roll each half into a spiral and arrange in baking dish on top of the sauce.
- When all of the rolls have been made, spread another cup of tomato sauce on top of the rolls, sprinkle with mozzarella cheese (and fresh basil and veggies if desired).
- Cover dish with aluminum foil.
- Bake at 375ºF for 20 minutes; remove foil and bake uncovered for another 20 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbling. Let cool for 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a small saucepan heat remaining pasta sauce and serve additional sauce as needed.
Spa Index Kitchen Notes
If you want to please the family and a meat-sauce is necessary, use ground turkey or chicken in the sauce to keep the fat grabs low and the protein high. Tried this recipe?Mention or tag @SpaIndex so we can share!
