Notes
- Freezing Instructions - One of the biggest reasons this is a go to dinner for me is how easy they are to make ahead of time and freeze! You can make a bunch of extra rolls, cover the casserole dish with foil, then just freeze them (without the sauce). Next time you make the roll ups, you can just thaw them and throw them in a pan with some sauce and they are ready to bake.
- Storing Leftovers - Store any leftovers in the refrigerator, tightly covered, for up to three days.
- Recipe Additions - For a little extra kick, toss in a pinch of red pepper flakes to the sauce. A little goes a long way, so be careful, especially with little eaters. You can also add some spinach to the roll ups for extra vitamins and nutrition. I promise your picky eaters will never even taste it!
