Easy Pesto Lasagna Roll-Ups image

Dinner dilemma? Don't miss this family-friendly recipe for Easy Pesto Lasagna Roll-Ups made with just six simple ingredients. I've traded the luscious layers of lasagna for their rolled counterparts and added a flavor-packed addition to the creamy ricotta: basil pesto!

It may seem odd to incorporate two classic Italian sauces into one dish, but one forkful of these flavor-packed rolls and you'll be chiming in with your own rendition of "When two become one...." #SpiceGirls #IAmOld #AndNotHip Once the lasagna noodles are filled and rolled, they're arranged side by side in a pool of marinara sauce, then topped with even more sauce and a drizzle of pesto. A final shower of shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan, and you are well on your way to winning dinner.

Time 55m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

Olive oil
Kosher salt
8 uncooked lasagna noodles
1 1/2 cups ricotta cheese
3/4 cup homemade or store-bought pesto sauce
3 1/2 cups homemade or store-bought marinara sauce
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a baking sheet with olive oil.
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the noodles according to the package directions for al dente. Drain and arrange in a layer on the prepared baking sheet.
  • In a medium bowl, stir together the ricotta cheese with 1/2 cup of the pesto. Divide the ricotta mixture evenly among the noodles, spreading it the length of each noodle. Divide 1 cup of the marinara sauce evenly among the 8 noodles, spreading it on top of the ricotta mixture.
  • Add 1 1/2 cups of the remaining marinara sauce to the bottom of a 13-by-9-inch baking dish.
  • Roll up the lasagna noodles, then arrange them seam-side down in the baking dish. Top them with the remaining 1 cup marinara sauce and 1/4 cup pesto. Cover the baking dish securely with foil and bake for 30 minutes.
  • Remove the foil, top the roll-ups with the mozzarella cheese and continue baking, uncovered, until the cheese is melted, about 5 minutes. Remove the dish from the oven, top the lasagna roll-ups with the grated Parmesan cheese and serve.

Categories     Bread     Yeast Bread Recipes     Rolls and Buns

Time 2h10m

Yield 20

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup warm water (100 degrees F/40 degrees C)
½ teaspoon white sugar
1 (.25 ounce) package active dry yeast
5 cups all-purpose flour
¾ cup white sugar
2 teaspoons salt
2 eggs, beaten
½ cup butter, melted
1 (8 ounce) package sliced pepperoni

Steps:

  • Dissolve 1/2 teaspoon sugar in 1 cup of warm water in a small bowl. Sprinkle yeast over the water and let stand for 5 minutes.
  • Mix flour, 3/4 cup sugar, and salt in a large bowl. Stir in the yeast mixture, beaten eggs, and melted butter. When the dough has pulled together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 8 minutes.
  • Lightly oil a large bowl, then place the dough in the bowl and turn to coat with oil. Cover with a light cloth and let rise in a warm place (80 to 95 degrees F (27 to 35 degrees C)) until doubled in volume, about 1 1/2 hours.
  • Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a cookie sheet.
  • Punch down the dough, and divide it into 20 equal pieces about the size of a golf ball. Using your hands, flatten each piece into a small rectangle about 4 inches square. Place 3 slices of pepperoni down the center of each dough square, overlapping the slices. Place another row of 3 slices next to the first. Roll the dough around the pepperoni slices, pinch the edges closed, and place the rolls on the prepared cookie sheet.
  • Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 14 to 16 minutes, until the bottoms are lightly browned and the tops are barely golden.

PESTO CHICKEN ROLL-UPS



Pesto Chicken Roll-Ups image

Simple dish, and variations are only limited by your imagination and what you have onhand. Listed is my basic recipe, but there really are many possibilities. Condensed soups or other sauces instead of pesto? Sure. Smoked gouda or chevre? Both favorites. Asparagus spears, or hot pepper slices in the center? Nice, but slightly precook them first.

Categories     Chicken Breast

Time 1h15m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1/4 cup pesto sauce
1/2 cup cheese, grated or 1/2 cup crumbled such as mozzarella cheese, Provelone, Gouda
1/4 cup black olives, chopped (optional)
cornmeal or panko breadcrumbs, spread out in a small plate
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts

Steps:

  • Preheat over to 350°F.
  • Grease a standard 9 by 13 glass backing pan (or whatever you find as equivalent).
  • Pound chicken breasts to about 1/4 inch thick. Pounding between sheets of plastic wrap keeps the bits off your walls :-).
  • Divide filling ingredients into quarters.
  • Spread one quarter of the pesto on inside, rougher surface of a chicken breast.
  • Evenly sprinkle one quarter of the olives and cheese onto the pesto covered chicken breast.
  • Roll up the chicken breast and then roll in the corn meal to coat.
  • Place roll-up in the greased glass baking pan, seam down.
  • Do the same to the other 3 breasts.
  • Optionally spray tops with non-stick spray to attain browner crusts.
  • Bake for 35-45 minutes, or until center of each breast is done.
  • Can serve as is immediately, or with a cheese sauce.
