Pepperoni Pizza Lasagna Roll-ups


Ingredients:

2 tsp. dried Parsley flakes
1/4 c. grated Parmesan cheese
2 c. small curd low fat cottage cheese
1/2 c. 70% less fat turkey pepperoni, chopped
15 lasagna noodles, cooked according to the package, drained and cooled
1/2 tsp. fresh black pepper
1 1/2 tsp. garlic salt
1 1/4 c. Hunt's 4 cheese pasta sauce (or any kind of pasta sauce)
7 oz. pizza sauce
1 1/2 c. shredded Mozzarella cheese
1/2 c. grated Parmesan cheese
Extra turkey pepperoni for garnish



Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Spray a 13x9 baking dish with non stick cooking spray. In a medium sized bowl, combine the parsley, 1/4 c. grated Parmesan cheese, cottage cheese, 1/2 c. diced turkey pepperoni, garlic salt and black pepper. Mix until well combined. In a small bowl, combine the pasta sauce and the pizza sauce, and set aside. 

Lay out 1 lasagna noodle on a flat surface or a plate. Spread about 1 1/2 Tbs. of the cheese mixture onto the inside of the noodle, leaving an inch of noodle at the end with nothing on it. Starting at the end towards you, roll the noodle up until you get to the part with no cheese. Place seam side down in the prepared pan, and repeat for the remaining noodles. Top each roll-up with 1-2 Tbs. of sauce. Sprinkle the tops with the shredded Mozzarella cheese, and then the 1/2 c. grated Parmesan. Place 1 pepperoni slice on top. 

Bake for 30 minutes, covered with foil. Then remove the foil and cook for 5-7 more minutes until the cheese starts to get slightly golden brown.
