Equipment

  • large skillet
  • mixing bowl
  • blender or food processor
  • saucepan
  • baking dish

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb raw shrimp, peeled, deveined, and chopped
  • 8 oz fresh spinach, chopped
  • 15 oz ricotta cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 jar (12 oz) roasted red peppers, drained
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced (for sauce)
  • 1 tbsp olive oil (for sauce)
  • 8–10 lasagna noodles, cooked al dente
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Instructions
 

  • Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Sauté the chopped onion and garlic until fragrant. Add the shrimp and cook until pink, then stir in the spinach until wilted. Remove from heat and let cool slightly, then mix with ricotta, Parmesan, egg, salt, and pepper.
  • In a blender or food processor, combine roasted red peppers, garlic, and heavy cream. Blend until smooth, then transfer to a saucepan and gently heat over medium heat. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Spread a thin layer of sauce in a baking dish. Lay lasagna noodles flat, spread filling evenly, roll up, and place seam-side down. Pour remaining sauce over the rolls, sprinkle with mozzarella, and bake for 25–30 minutes until bubbly.

Notes

Let the filling cool slightly before mixing with the egg to prevent scrambling. Cover the dish with foil for the first 15 minutes of baking to avoid over-browning. Rest the rolls for 5 minutes before serving so they hold their shape.
