Tonight’s Dinner: Lasagna roll-ups

Are you used to lasagna coming in a casserole dish? Make individual servings with these delicious roll-ups instead.

Lasagna—a classic Italian dish that’s rich, meaty, and delicious. There’s only one problem with this awesome casserole, when you’re making it for two to three people — there’s usually tons left over. But what if you could individualize it? You’d get the same great flavors in your own personal dish and ideally, no leftovers. But what makes these little rolls especially great is that they’re so pretty on the plate, thereby making them a great dinner option when you’re having several people over. So, whether you’re making dinner for four or 40, these roll-ups are the perfect choice.
