These Mushroom and Spinach Lasagna Rolls flip the script on classic lasagna—layered, yes, but with a twist of finesse and earthy elegance you didn’t know you were missing. Inspired by rustic Italian cooking, these rolls are proof that comfort food can still be creative.

Each bite wraps up creamy ricotta, garlicky spinach, and umami-packed mushrooms in tender pasta sheets—elegant enough for dinner parties, but easy enough for a Tuesday. It tastes unexpectedly amazing alongside a Vegas Bomb Shot or chilly Vesper, bringing serious flavor and fun to the table.

The real secret? Rolling the lasagna locks in flavor and makes for perfect individual portions—plus, they reheat like a dream. You’ll never look at a casserole dish the same way again.
