Pretty good. I omitted the extra teaspoon of salt and instead of cooking fresh garlic, I just added wet garlic to the cheese mix. I didn’t have a 14 oz. jar of pasta sauce, so I mixed what I had: 8 oz. can of tomato sauce, 6 oz. can of tomato paste, and 1 Tbsp. of dried Italian seasoning. I fit the 8 roll-ups in a 9x9 square dish and as a main dish, this recipe made 2.5 servings in this house.
I've actually made this recipe twice on our newly adopted "Meatless Monday". I used fresh baby spinach the second and just laid a single line down the middle over the cheese mixture. I get the 8oz block of cheese and use half in the mixture and use the rest to cover the rolls. My children love it
Trying this for the first time. Looking pretty yummy so far! I substituted cottage cheese for ricotta and added 1 lb. of lean ground beef. Because I added more ingredients I used ten noodles. Putting a 1/4 cup in each roll made it a perfect portion. This is super easy to make and good to make ahead of time so I can pop in the oven when we are ready to eat!
The spinach and ricotta was a little overwhelming. Next time I might add some more garlic to the mix and maybe some sugar. I had to thicken the sauce with tomato paste in order to get the right look to it. Overall was still very good.
Surprised how delicious this was! Maybe the garlic gave it something extra. I usually layer the cheese and meat sauce together but liked it this way. Nice and creamy was my husband's comment. I used a little less spinach than called for.
Also - i chose this recipe for its size. However, the cheese mixture only filled 7 noodles.
Will make this or something like it again...added parsley, pepper and one egg to the ricotta mixture. To dry spinach I squeezed it between two dinner plates and that worked well. Just added garlic powder this time because I did not have time to saute. Wished I would have used 9 noodles because the mixtures made enough for nine rollups, used a 11x7 pan and put a little sauce in bottom first, sprinkled mozzarella on the top, too.
Easy to make taste very good
these rolls were amazing but we prefer to make them with a homemade alfredo sauce instead! Give it a try!
This is a family favorite; my husband has been begging for this meal for a couple of months. Some recipes call for onions but I have to leave them out due to an allergy. Try it and you won't be disappointed.
Did not love this and the kids wouldnt touch it. I made it exactly as written as you should do if you are leaving a review. The spinach was overwhelming! My husband said before he tried it that my son was going to sit in his seat until he was done. My son was in tears and then my husband tried it and apologized. They are both eating cereal for dinner tonight.
