"This is a very good old Weight Watchers recipe (when they had exchanges) but I think if following the WW flex plan it is about 9 points. Recipe source: Weight Watchers Quick Start Program Book"

 

• Ready In: 1hr
• Ingredients: 9
• Serves: 4

ingredients

• 1 cup part-skim ricotta cheese
• 2 eggs, beaten
• 2 ounces mozzarella cheese, shredded (I use part-skim)
• 4 tablespoons parmesan cheese, shredded, divided
• 1⁄4 teaspoon oregano
• 1⁄4 teaspoon basil
• 1 dash garlic powder
• 8 lasagna noodles, cooked according to package directions
• 1 cup tomato sauce

directions

1. Preheat oven to 350-degrees F.
2. Spray individual casseroles with Pam and set aside (or use a larger baking pan large enough for all lasagna rolls to fit in one pan (13 x 9).
3. In a bowl combine ricotta, mozzarella, 2 tablespoons Parmesan and spices.
4. On a damp towel or plastic wrap place one lasagna noodle - spoon 1/8th of the cheese mixture lengthwise in center of noodle, and roll noodle starting with narrow end to enclose filling. Repeat with remaining noodles and cheese mixture.
5. Place 2 rolls in each prepared baking dish (or in the larger pan) and spoon 2 tablespoons of tomato sauce over each roll; sprinkle with 3/4 teaspoon of Parmesan and bake for 30-45 minutes (if using the larger pan it will take longer to cook - 45-60 minutes). Garnish with parsley if desired.

These were good. There isn't much sauce, so they dry out a little, and the filling is a bit "eggy", but it is still a nice lightened-up version. Works well with any stuffed noodle... like manicotti or large shells, too.

i want to start by saying that i messed up and over cooked it(oven issues :))so my noodles were a little crunchy and rubbery. but the taste was really good and I culd tell if cook properly this would be very good. i sauted a little chopped garlic and chopped mushrooms and added the tomato sauce to that and it worked really well. I took teresaS's advice and made extra sauce cause hubby and i like things saucey, and that worked well too. I will make this again and hopefully it will be in a new oven lol :) thank you ellie for sharing a great recipe.

This is excellent! I didn't even miss the meat. It was very filling with two of the rolls and a nice side salad. I made as posted. There really isn't a lot of sauce and it is on the dense side. So if you like it saucy you may want to double the tomato sauce. Very flavorful. Thanks ellie for posting.
