This is a great quick recipe that's meatless and light. You can lighten it even more by using lower fat ingredients. Great for kids to make! This is a microwave recipe, but can be made in the oven. Also, ricotta cheese is easily substituted for the cottage cheese, if you prefer!

SERVES 6 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

12 lasagna noodles, cooked, drained
2 cups cottage cheese (or ricotta cheese)

These were very good, and I loved the fact that they cooked up so fast in the microwave. I used a spagetti sauce that was very meaty to make this an extra-hearty meal. DH can't handle much dairy products in his food, so I made a few of the rolls with spaghetti sauce down the middle and just a bit of the cheese filling for him. Worked out really well.

Wow! I'm NOT one to cook meals in the microwave, but these may have changed my mind. Great recipe for hot summer days. I'd suggest leaving a couple inches at the end of the noodle plain, as when you roll it, the cheese tends to gush forward. My husband liked these better than my "regular" lasagna. I added some mild italian sausage as well. I wasn't sure about the amount of parsley if using dried, so I used about 2 Tsp. Turned out fine. I was surprised how bubbly and cheesy this turned out! Yummmmy! Thanks

What a great idea - baking lasagna in the microwave. This recipe is DEFINITELY a KEEPER! My lasagna loving husband liked it, my picky picky DD loved it. I made 16 rolls, froze half for easy lunches. I made it according to recipe (although I was shy on the parmesan, didn't know I was out) with my own red sauce. I guess if you use a very bland red sauce, it could turn out bland. I really loved the fact that this could be microwaved. The only trouble I had making this recipe was trying to figure out how long to cook the oven ready lasagna noodles I had on hand! I boiled them for about 7 minutes and they were perfectly pliable for rolling and tasted perfect.

MMM-MMM!! These were so good last night - I can't wait to have the leftovers for lunch! I don't really like parsley, so I added basil instead! I was going to cook the full box of pasta but about 3/4 of the noodles ended up fitting in the boiling pot, so I had to kind of wing the rest of the amounts of ingredients! I put in a couple healthy scoops of cottage cheese, a handfull or two of Italian and Mozz, a copped up tomato I had on hand, and some garlic salt. I don't think this recipe would be too easy to mess up because I measured nothing but it still turned out great! THX!
