Assemble Ahead Of Time

These Roll-Ups can be assembled ahead of time. Cover with foil and refrigerate for up to two days. Add 5 to 10 minutes onto the baking time.

For the pasta sauce I recommend Rao’s Roasted Garlic. It costs more than other brands, but it is so delicious and tastes like homemade.

Freezes Well

Freeze unbaked lasagna roll-ups for up to two months. Let them thaw in the refrigerator overnight before baking.

Can I Substitute Ground Beef?

Yes! Ground beef or even ground turkey can be used instead of Italian sausage.

Is It Spicy?

A half teaspoon of crushed red pepper flakes adds a little heat to this dish. For more heat, use “Hot” Italian sausage.
