Lasagna Roll-ups

2 cups marinara sauce
9 uncooked lasagna noodles
8 oz ground sausage, cooked and crumbled small
10 oz package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed well
15 oz ricotta cheese
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 large egg
kosher salt and fresh pepper
mozzarella cheese, shredded 

Ladle about 1 cup sauce on the bottom of a 9 x 12 baking dish. Cook noodles according to package directions, then drain.

Combine cooked sausage, spinach, ricotta, Parmesan, egg, 1/2 teaspoon salt and black pepper in a medium bowl and mix.

Place a piece of wax paper on the counter and lay out lasagna noodles. Make sure noodles are dry. Take about 1/3 cup of ricotta mixture and spread evenly over noodle. Roll carefully and place seam side down onto the baking dish. Repeat with remaining noodles.

Ladle remaining sauce over the noodles and top each one with mozzarella cheese. Put foil over baking dish and bake at 350* for 40 minutes, or until cheese melts. Makes 9 rolls.
