Baked Four-Cheese Lasagna Roll-Ups: How It’s Done
  1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the lasagna noodles and cook according to package instructions until al dente, usually about 8-10 minutes. Drain carefully and lay the noodles flat on a clean kitchen towel or parchment paper to prevent sticking.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine ricotta, mozzarella, parmesan, and cheddar cheeses. Add the minced garlic, Italian seasoning, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Crack in the egg and stir everything together until smooth and well incorporated.
  3. Spread about 2 tablespoons of the cheese mixture evenly over each cooked lasagna noodle. Roll each noodle tightly from one end to the other.
  4. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Pour half of the marinara sauce into the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish. Arrange the roll-ups seam-side down in a single layer over the sauce. Pour the remaining marinara sauce evenly over the top.
  5. Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 25 minutes. Remove the foil and continue baking for an additional 10 minutes or until the sauce is bubbling and the cheese is melted and golden.
  6. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Garnish with freshly chopped basil leaves before serving. Enjoy the warm, cheesy goodness!

Notes

  • Use no-boil lasagna noodles to save prep time and skip boiling.
  • Mix cheeses well with egg and seasoning to ensure a cohesive filling.
  • Cover the dish during baking to keep roll-ups moist; uncover near the end for a golden top.
  • Leftovers store well refrigerated for up to 3 days or frozen for 2 months.
  • Try adding cooked ground beef or sautéed vegetables to the filling for variety.
