Lasagna Rolls

I made Lasagna Rolls from Eating Well on Monday night. The recipe says they are "easy," but I would give them more of a "medium" level of work rating.

I used frozen spinach instead of fresh b/c WM didn't have any fresh bunches and I wasn't going to pay for the prewashed.

The new, neat-o thing that I learned from this recipe is that tofu makes a great ricotta cheese substitute! I used the Calco Pressed Tofu from Asia World Market, and I just chopped it super fine in the food processor. I googled around afterward and found some recipes for flavoring it up using parsley, garlic, etc. Very cool!

The spinach/tofu filling...it also had kalamata olives, a little marinara, garlic, etc.

Making the rolls. I think this would be easier as a regular lasagna or in the big shells.

They were supposed to cook in a skillet, but I baked instead. These also held up great for leftovers.
