The rest of my family does not eat lasagna, but I love it. I needed something I could freeze and heat up for nights I work. It came together pretty easy, but the next time I make this, I'll use more veggies in addition to the spinach. I'm thinking chopped, roasted tomatoes, garlic, summer squash, would be nice additions. I sprinkled pepper into the spinach cheese mixture and then sprinkled garlic powder on top. Next time I'll boost up the seasonings, using Italian herbs and more garlic.
Recipe:
9 cooked lasagna noodles, drain and lay to dry on a clean kitchen towel
10 oz package of frozen spinach, thawed and drained
15 oz package non-fat ricotta cheese
1/2 C parmesan cheese
1 egg
32 oz tomato sauce
9 T mozzarella cheese- I'll admit, I probably used more.
-Preheat oven to 350
-Ladle 9 x 11 pan with about 1 cup of tomato sauce, reserving the rest to pour over the roll ups
-Mix together the spinach, ricotta, parmesan and egg
-Lay out each lasagna noodle on a piece of wax paper and spread 1/3 cup of spinach mixture onto noodle
-Roll up the lasagna noodle and place in the baking dish
-Pour remaining tomato sauce over the rolls ups
-Sprinkle 1 T of mozzarella cheese on top of each roll up
-Cover with foil and bake for 40 minutes or until cheese is melted

This sounds very good, but I agree with adding more veggies! Mushrooms too! Lasagna does freeze well, so your idea is fantastic. I can't imagine that your men don't like lasagna!! Have a good evening!
