# What You'll Need:

01 - 10 lasagna noodles, cooked
02 - 2 tablespoons olive oil
03 - 225 grams mushrooms, chopped
04 - 2 cloves garlic, minced
05 - 3 cups fresh spinach, roughly chopped
06 - 240 grams ricotta cheese
07 - 60 grams mozzarella cheese, shredded
08 - 25 grams Parmesan cheese, grated
09 - 1 large egg, beaten
10 - 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
11 - Salt, to taste
12 - Black pepper, to taste

→ Sauce and Topping

13 - 480 millilitres marinara sauce
14 - 60 grams mozzarella cheese, shredded
15 - 25 grams Parmesan cheese, grated

→ Garnish (optional)

16 - Fresh basil or parsley, chopped

# Steps to Follow:

01 - Cook lasagna noodles in a large pot of salted boiling water according to package instructions. Drain and lay flat on a clean kitchen towel to prevent sticking.
02 - Heat olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add chopped mushrooms and sauté until softened and excess liquid has evaporated, about 5 minutes. Add minced garlic and cook for 1 minute. Stir in spinach and cook until wilted; remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
03 - In a large bowl, combine sautéed mushrooms and spinach, ricotta cheese, shredded mozzarella, grated Parmesan, beaten egg, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly until evenly blended.
04 - Spread a thin layer of the ricotta mixture along the length of each lasagna noodle. Carefully roll each noodle from one short end to the other, creating a tight spiral.
05 - Pour 1 cup of marinara sauce into the bottom of a large baking dish. Place the rolled noodles seam-side down in a single layer over the sauce.
06 - Spoon the remaining marinara sauce evenly over the rolls. Sprinkle with additional shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan cheese.
07 - Cover the dish with aluminium foil and bake in a preheated oven at 180°C for 25 minutes. Remove the foil and continue baking for 10–15 minutes, until cheese is melted and bubbling.
08 - Garnish finished rolls with chopped fresh basil or parsley, if desired. Serve hot.

# Additional Notes:

01 - Allow the lasagna rolls to rest for 5 minutes before serving for cleaner slices and enhanced flavour.
