CHEESY TUNA LASAGNA ROLL UPS

If you have gone through my blog, you would see that I already have a Three Cheese Tuna Lasagna Recipe posted. However this recipe may be similar, there are elements that are a bit different as well. Typical lasagna like my other lasagna recipe, are arranged in layers of the protein, pasta and cheese and then baked. This dish, however, is more labor intensive but the end result is always more than worth it.

Ingredients:

12 lasagna noodles
2 cans of tuna
1 can condensed cream of mushroom
1/4 cup whole milk
1 cup cottage cheese
1 egg 
1/4 cup scallions/green onions
1 medium onion minced
2 tsp. garlic powder
2 tsp. dried parsley
1/2 cup of grated cheddar cheese
2 tbsp. grated parmesan cheese

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees C.

Cook the lasagna noodles as per package instructions.

For the sauce/filling, sauté the minced onions in a sauce pan then add the tuna. Pour in the cream of mushroom and milk. Season it with garlic powder and dried parsley.

Take it off the stove and add the scallions/green onions, egg and 1 cup cottage cheese and cheddar cheese.

Line the bottom of a 9x13 baking dish with the filling enough to cover the whole surface.

Arrange one cooked lasagna on a flat surface. Cover it with the filling and roll. Repeat the step on the remaining 12 noodles leaving enough filling to drizzle on top of the arranged lasagna later.

Arrange the rolled lasagna on the baking dish as shown in the photo.

Top it with the remaining filling and cheddar cheese. Sprinkle with parmesan cheese and garnish with dried parmesan.

Bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes until the cheese has melted.

Easy to serve in individual portions. Pair it with garlic herb toast and you have one tasty filling meal. Enjoy.
