Recipe Review..."Turkey Lasagna Rolls"

Here is a recipe I have made several times over the years.  When the kids were little they loved it and  I have always enjoyed it too. Yummy "Turkey Lasagna Rolls".  I can't remember where I found this recipe but it is simple and tasty.  Great served with a salad and a fresh round of bread. I  gathered my ingredients......

Roll-up station:-)

Here is the recipe....

Turkey Lasagna Rolls (12 servings)

*12 Lasagna noodles, uncooked

*1 pound ground turkey

*1 small onion finely chopped

*1 clove of garlic minced (I used garlic powder equivalent)

1 (28 oz) jar of spaghetti sauce (I always use a bit more)

1 (14 oz) jar of spaghetti sauce (I always use a bit more)

1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley

1/2 tsp of salt

1 (15 oz) container of ricotta cheese

1 (12 oz) container of cottage cheese

1 cup (4 oz) of shredded mozzarella cheese

2 large eggs, lightly beaten

2 tablespoons of grated Parmesan cheese

1 tsp of dried Italian seasoning

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese 

Cook noodles according to package directions.  Drain, rinse with cold water, and set aside. (I pat them dry with paper towels before I use them)

Cook turkey, onions, and garlic until turkey is browned, stirring until turkey is crumbled in a dutch oven or large pot.  Add spaghetti sauce, parsley, and salt.  Cover and simmer for about 10 minutes. Spoon 1 cup of sauce mixture into a lightly greased 13 x 9-inch baking dish.  Set aside.

 Combine ricotta cheese and next 5 ingredients.  Spread evenly over each noodle. 

Roll up jellyroll fashion starting at the narrow end.  Place seam side down in baking dish.  Pour remaining sauce mixture over rolls and sprinkle with 1/2 cup of the Parmesan cheese.  Cover tightly.

Bake covered at 375 degrees for 30 minutes

         Uncover and bake an additional 30 minutes or until heated through.

If I were to change anything about this recipe I would probably top it with shredded mozzarella cheese.  I think that would make for a pretty presentation. 

Happy Cooking and Eating Everyone!

I would have to give this a 9/10 on my cooking scale.
