Instructions:

  1. In a skillet, combine the lean ground beef and finely chopped onion. Cook over medium-high heat until the beef is no longer pink, ensuring to stir often and crumble the beef while cooking. Once cooked, drain well to remove excess fat.

  2. Stir in 1/2 cup of pasta sauce into the beef mixture, ensuring it’s evenly distributed.

  3. Remove the skillet from the burner and set it aside.

  4. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

  5. Spread 3 tablespoons of pasta sauce in an ungreased 8-inch square glass baking pan, ensuring the bottom is evenly coated.

  6. In a mixing bowl, combine the egg, ricotta cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, dried oregano, dried basil, and 3/4 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese. Stir until well mixed and creamy.

  7. Lay out the lasagna noodles on a clean surface. Spread 1/4 of the ricotta cheese mixture evenly over each noodle, leaving a small border around the edges.

  8. Layer spinach leaves over the ricotta mixture, followed by a generous portion of the cooked ground beef and onion mixture.

  9. Starting from one short end, gently roll up each lasagna noodle, ensuring the filling is secure inside. Place the rollups seam side down in the prepared baking dish.

  10. Once all rollups are neatly arranged in the baking dish, pour the remaining pasta sauce evenly over the top, ensuring each rollup is generously coated.

  11. Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil, sealing it tightly to prevent moisture from escaping.

  12. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-40 minutes, or until the sauce is bubbly and the rollups are heated through.

  13. Carefully remove the foil from the baking dish, taking care to avoid steam burns. Sprinkle the remaining shredded mozzarella cheese over the top of the rollups.

  14. Return the uncovered dish to the oven and bake for an additional 2-4 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and golden brown.

  15. Once done, remove the baking dish from the oven and allow the lasagna rollups to rest for 5-10 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld together and ensures easier slicing.

  16. Serve these delectable Ground Beef and Spinach Lasagna Rollups hot, garnished with fresh basil leaves or a sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese, if desired.

These Ground Beef and Spinach Lasagna Rollups are sure to become a family favorite, offering a delightful twist on the classic lasagna dish. With their hearty filling and irresistible cheesy goodness, they’re bound to disappear from the dinner table in no time! Enjoy the satisfaction of creating a comforting meal that brings joy to every bite. 🍝🧀🥩
