Yummy Veggie Lasagna Roll-Ups



This was a yummy way to pack some serious veggies into a meal - it is a little more work than most meals but so much fun and totally worth it!
  • Approximately 12 wheat lasagna noodles
  • 1 jar of your favorite spaghetti sauce
  • 1 zucchini
  • 1 squash
  • 1 head broccoli florets
  • 4 large carrots
  • 2 cups mozzarella cheese
  • 1 1/2 cups grated parmesan cheese
  • 1 small container ricotta cheese
  • cheesecloth
  • salt 'n' peppa and garlic and onion powder to taste
In food processor shred (together or separate) zucchini, squash and carrots. Once shredded wrap in cheesecloth and squeeze excess water out. In a large container add ricotta, 1 cup of mozzarella and 1/2 cup parmesan, shredded veggies and broccoli. Lay out lasagna noodle and spread cheese/veggie mixture on the noodle. Roll up and place in a cake pan slightly lined with spaghetti sauce. Cover the roll-ups with remaining sauce and mozzarella cheese, sprinkle with additional parmesan cheese. Cover with foil and bake at 350 for 30 minutes, remove foil and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes.

Enjoy!
