Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 3-4 minutes.
  2. Add the ground chicken (and sausage if uncooked) along with the garlic powder, dried oregano, and crushed red pepper flakes. Break up the meat using a potato masher and cook until crumbly and nearly cooked through, about 5 minutes.
  3. Add the minced garlic, and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Add the cooked sausage and stir until well combined. Remove from the heat and let cool.
  4. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Coat two baking dishes with cooking spray.
  5. Cook lasagna noodles per instructions then lay them out on top of some parchment paper.
  6. Combine the ricotta, spinach, Parmesan, egg, nutmeg, basil, parsley, sea salt, and freshly cracked pepper, to taste, together in a large bowl; mix until well combined.
  7. Spoon a thin layer of the ricotta mixture down the entire length of the lasagna noodle. Repeat with the remaining noodles.
  8. Next, place spoonfuls of the chicken and sausage on top of the ricotta; repeat with the remaining noodles. Starting from one end, roll up. Repeat.
  9. Coat a baking dish with cooking spray then spoon a layer of the marinara sauce in the bottom of the baking dish.
  10. Place the lasagna rolls, seam side down, into the baking dish. Cover each roll with sauce then add a bit of mozzarella cheese and Parmesan cheese to the top of each roll.
  11. Cover with tin foil, and cook for 15 minutes.
  12. Remove the tin foil and continue baking for 10 minutes or until the cheese is melted.
  13. Serve immediately with freshly chopped parsley on top. Enjoy.
