Easy Alfredo Lasagna Roll Ups
Easy lasagna roll ups are filled with spinach and covered with alfredo sauce. Choose seafood or chicken to add to the filling and prepare them ahead for a dinner party.
Spinach Alfredo Lasagna Rollups
When it comes to cooking for dinner party menus there are a few things I like to keep in mind.
- The dish needs to look special enough for company.
- It needs to be easy or convenient enough for me to put together without too much time and effort.
- It needs to taste good of course!
These creamy seafood lasagna rolls hit on all three points!
Why You’ll Love It
- It’s a good alternative to traditional lasagna or alfredo pasta. And the presentation looks like you went to so much more effort, even though it’s super simple to do!
- It can be done from start to finish in about an hour or less.
- Prep it ahead. Follow the directions all the way up to the baking step. Cover and refrigerate until you’re ready to entertain. Pop it in the oven when guests arrive and it should be ready to eat in about 30 minutes.
- You have options for the filling. Use your choice of imitation crab or lump crab meat depending on your budget or taste buds. Use shredded chicken from a rotisserie chicken, or make it vegetarian and load up the noodles with extra spinach filling.
Key Ingredients
Lasagna Noodles. You need to use classic noodles for this because you’re going to cook them before using them. No-boil lasagna noodles will not work here. Make sure to salt the water when you cook them. The pasta needs the flavor boost.
Cottage Cheese. I like to use the low fat version but you could use regular. You can also substitute with ricotta cheese.
Frozen Chopped Spinach. Thaw according to package directions and make sure to squeeze all the water out.
Seafood or Chicken. Either one will work well in this recipe. In fact you could do half with crab meat and half with shredded chicken. Use flake style imitation crab or lump crab meat.
Jar of Alfredo Sauce. This is a big time saver and makes the recipe very easy. Use your favorite brand!
Shredded Parmesan cheese. You can shred your own for best freshness and melting, but it’s easy to buy a package pre-shredded, which will work fine.
Easy Steps
The process is simple and easy to do. See the full directions in the recipe card at the bottom.
- Cook noodles according to package directions. Drain and set aside so they can dry, or pat them dry with a paper towel.
- Use a food processor or blender to combine the spinach filling.
- Spread the noodles with the mixture and top with seafood and then roll up the noodles.
- Pour alfredo sauce over the noodles, cover and bake.
