Chicken Alfredo Lasagna Roll Ups

Chicken lasagna roll ups in a baking dish with a spatula lifting up two from the pan.

These chicken Alfredo roll ups are always a hit in my house! While hubby and the kids love the flavor, I love that they're made with easy ingredients and it's a meal that doesn't take me hours in the kitchen to prepare.

Ingredients

12 lasagna noodles cooked according to package directions
1 tablespoon olive oil
4 cups shredded cooked chicken 3-4 chicken breasts depending on size
1 10 ounce package of frozen chopped spinach
2 tablespoons thinly sliced green onion
1 pint part-skim ricotta cheese
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
½ teaspoon salt
1 egg
15 ounces Alfredo-style pasta sauce 1 jar
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375°F. Spray the bottom of a 9x13-inch casserole dish with nonstick cooking spray. Spread a thin layer of Alfredo sauce on the bottom of the dish and set aside.
Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add lasagna and cook for 8 to 10 minutes or until al dente. Rinse in cold water and drain well.
Meanwhile, in a large saucepan over medium heat add oil and cook spinach and green onions until tender, stirring frequently. Remove pan from heat and stir in shredded chicken, ricotta cheese, Parmesan cheese, salt, and egg.
Place noodles in a single layer on a sheet of waxed paper. Evenly spread some of the chicken mixture on each noodle. Roll up each noodle from the short end, jelly-roll style.
Arrange the rolled noodles, seam side down, in the dish. Top with remaining sauce and mozzarella cheese. Cover loosely with foil and bake in a preheated oven for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes or until hot and bubbly and the cheese is melted. For extra crispy cheese, broil for the last 2-3 minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley. Serve with garlic bread or a salad.

Notes

Want a crispier cheese topping? Broil the roll ups for 2-3 minutes right at the end of cooking.
Swap the spinach. You can use another green such as kale. Broccoli also works quite well in this dish.
Vegetarian. Skip the chicken and add sliced cooked mushrooms or mixed vegetables instead.
Prefer red sauce. Instead of Alfredo sauce, you can use your favorite red sauce.
Creamy pesto. Add several tablespoons of pesto to your Alfredo sauce.
