Caprese Rollups

One of my favorite things to do is cooking.  I love to try new things.  We have something at home called "New Recipe Night."  Sometimes these recipes are a total flop, but other times they become the new favorite.  Here is one I tried last week that was pretty simple.  Dylan and Jordan weren't home, but the rest of us loved it.

Caprese Rollups

 

8 lasagna noodles, cooked

16 slices mozzarella cheese

1/2-1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded

3-4 roma tomatoes, sliced

1/3 cup parmesan cheese

Basil

1-2 cups marinara sauce

 

Preheat over to 350.  Put marinara sauce in the bottom of baking pan (I used an 11 x 7).  Lay one cooked noodle flat on surface.  Place a tomato on the top of one side, then a slice of mozzarella cheese, then tomato, then cheese.  Repeat to end of noodle (I only needed to slices of cheese and two slices of tomatoes).  Sprinkle chopped basil (I used dried because fresh was not available) and parmesan cheese on top.  Roll up as tightly as possible.  Put in baking dish, seam down.  Repeat with other noodles.  When finished put remaining marinara sauce on top.  Bake for about 30 minutes.  Right before it is done, sprinkle with shredded mozzarella cheese and return to oven until melted.  Delicious!
