Portobello Lasagna Rollups

I love Lasagna, but I only make it every once in a while because of the high calories and all the work you have to do to put everything together. But when I saw this recipe, I instantly bookmarked it because it's healthier and pretty easy to put it together as you roll the noodles instead of layering them. This recipe calls for portobello mushrooms instead of sausage or ground meat which is why I was attracted to this recipe in the first place. I also got to use whole wheat lasagna noodles for the first time. They were pretty tasty to me but you can use regular white noodles instead. It has significantly lower calories than the regular meaty lasagna and it is also tasty which is, to me, the most important thing. I hate those "healthy" recipes that don't taste yucky. I try my best to find healthy recipes that are also delicious. I mean, where's the fun in eating if I couldn't enjoy great flavors? :)

  12. Beautiful pictures again, Sook. I'm confused though (not an unusual occurrence, btw) How does it save time to roll up the lasagne noodles? Or is it the quick sauce that saves time? I make lasagne all the time (not with whole wheat noodles-bleah!)and it's just a lot of steps depending on what you put in it. I'll post a recipe on my blog for you to compare one of these days.

  14. Hi Joe,
    I guess rolling the noodles seemed to be a quicker and easier way to make the lasagna since there is no layering involved. Also yes, the sauce took shorter time to make because I didn't have to wait for meat to cook. But yes, there are many steps to making this recipe as well but for me, it seemed a lot quicker and simpler to make than normal lasagna, which by the way I love!! :) Thanks for your comment!

  35. Lasagna is one of those rare things in my house too! as much as we all love it, it really does take a lot of time to put together. My sister told me about rolling them up several months ago....I really should give this a try. I like the idea of the mushrooms vs the meat.
