Introduction
A delicious twist on classic lasagna that is easier to assemble, quicker to bake, and perfectly portioned. Packed with a savory beef marinara sauce and a creamy four-cheese filling, these roll-ups are great for making ahead and freezing.
Step 1
Cook 12 lasagna noodles in a large pot of boiling salted water according to package instructions until al dente. Add them one at a time to prevent sticking. Cook a few extra noodles in case some break.
Step 2
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a deep pan or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add 1 pound of lean ground beef and cook for about 2 minutes, breaking it up with a spatula.
Step 3
Add 1/2 cup of diced onions and continue cooking for about 3 minutes until the onions soften.
Step 4
Add 3 minced garlic cloves, 1 teaspoon of sea salt, 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon of dried oregano. Saute for another minute until fragrant.
Step 5
Pour in 24 oz (3 cups) of marinara sauce. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then turn off the heat and set aside.

Important Notes
Unlike traditional lasagna, lasagna roll-ups do not require resting time and can be served immediately after baking.
Cooking a few extra noodles is highly recommended because some may break during boiling.
Rinsing and keeping the cooked noodles in cold water is a crucial step to prevent them from sticking together.
This recipe is extremely freezer-friendly and can be assembled ahead of time.
