1 box lasagna noodles you may only only use about 10-12 noodles, or you can stretch the cheese mixture thinner and make a second, smaller pan
1 egg lightly beaten
14 ounces ricotta cheese
½ cup grated parmesan cheese
15 big basil leaves chopped
1 cup fresh spinach chopped
2-3 thinly sliced campari tomatoes
2 cup mozzarella
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon pepper
1 lb ground turkey or beef for meat sauce
2 cloves minced garlic for meat sauce
½ med onion for meat sauce
1 jar marinara sauce
1 fresh mozzarella log

Cook noodles according to package, drain and set aside. (to help with sticking toss with a little EVOO or rinse with cold water)
In a separate pan-ground meat, garlic and onion together. drain grease and add marinara sauce. allow sauce to simmer while you roll lasagna.
Chop basil and spinach then In a large bowl combine egg, parmesan cheese, spinach, basil, salt, pepper
To assemble roll-ups scoop heaping spoonfuls (about ¼-1/3) of cheese mixture onto lasagna noodles. Lay a sliced tomato (or two-4) and roll.
Place a bit of sauce (about ½ cup) on the bottom a 9x13 pan, next place lasagna roll-ups, seam side down- side by side in the pan. because of the tomatoes they are kind of large, its ok if they are a little snug.
Cover with meat sauce and fresh mozzarella
Bake covered 350 for 20-25 minutes remove cover and bake for another 10-15 minutes or until internal temp is 165
