If the oatmeal is given an entire hour to soak, the bread has a delicate texture.

While slightly time consuming & messy, they were well worth the effort.
Yummy! This is a great way to use up extra lasagna noodles and clean out the fridge without wasting any food.
This was just okay. My husband and I felt it needed a bit more zip. I used the two packages of spinach but maybe should have included Italian sausage instead of one of the packages of spinach. If I were to make this again I’d use fresh garlic instead of powder as well as fresh basil.
Made this for the first time tonight and my family loved it! I did substitute half the spinach for a lb of cooked sausage with Italian seasoning added. I also used manicotti shells, which were very easy to stuff with the mixture once everything was cool. Will definitely make this again!
needs more sauce to make it better
I made it with spinach and it was very tasty. Next time I am going to try it with the Italian sausage. Good recipe!
This dish looked & smelled great and was a pleasure to make until it came to stuff the noodles. What a mess! The only change I made was to use jarred sauce; I got so impatient after stuffing noodles I couldn’t wait anymore! Next time I will add seasoning and garlic to the mixture, and use large shells instead of lasagna noodles.
The flavors were great. I forgot to dry my noodles after cooking, so the filling all fell out. My bad!
This was delicious and to my surprise, my kids LOVED it! It was time consuming to make but well worth it!
Excellent recipe for no meat dinner. Easy to fix
This dish can take some time to make, but it’s well worth it! I love this dish when I have dinner parties. I make the roll-ups a few hours ahead of time then, an hour prior to everyones arival, I put them in the over. When everyone arrives, the dish is ready and I am able to chat and enjoy the night. Super recipie. Side note: They freeze wonderfuly!
Ive made a variation of this recipe for awhile and the prep time and expense is so great that this one looked a bit easier and less expensive, It turns out the savings in prep time is just slight, as was the expense, I liked the flavor, but I didnt love it, as a matter of personal taste I prefer ricotta cheese to cottage, and roasted red peppers to just the plain ones. Thanks for sharing.
This was OK. It was time consuming to make and not as good as a regular Lasagna. Nice to try but not one for us.
This recipe was outstanding. I had so many left over lasagna noodles though. I couldn’t get them to all fit in the 9×13 pan.
These were good but not great. I did use whole wheat pasta and low fat cheeses. I added 1/2 tsp. salt to cottage cheese mixture. My kids and I liked them, but not my husband. I served with extra sauce.
I thought this meal was outstanding! I left out the red peppers and used a ready-marinara sauce and it was still really good. I also used fresh spinach and wilted it at the end of cooking the mushrooms and onions. I am passing it along to friends.
Although this wasn’t knock-your-socks off delicious, it was good and fairly healthy for an Italian dish. I had to add a lot of seasoning (garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, etc.) throughout the process. Otherwise would have been very bland. I also added zucchini to the filling. If I make this again, I’ll probably add even more veggies to make this more filling.
This dish was really good, both my roomie and I devoured it. I stayed close to the recipe, but added Italian seasoning to the spinach mixture, threw in a couple of cloves of garlic and subbed ricotta for the cottage cheese. Used jarred sauce because of time and I par-cooked the noodles instead of cooking them to al dente since they finish cooking in the oven. Additionally, no need to spray or grease the pan…just throw a layer of sauce down before putting your rolls in – this prevents them from sticking. I didn’t find them to be messy or hard to put together, like others had mentioned, nor did I think they took all that long to prepare. These will be made again – with Italian sausage being worked in, I am sure. Thanks!
I made this for my vegetarian sister-in-law and we ALL loved it, used fresh spinach and jarred spaghetti sauce. It made enough that we all ate it the next day for lunch.
Made this tonight. My vegetarian boyfriend said it was one of the best pasta dishes I’ve ever made! I used big shells instead of lasagne noodles. I only used 1 box of spinach, and added in 1 cup chopped zucchini, one minced carrot, one minced jalapeno, and some salt and pepper to the mix. Other than that, everything as mentioned and it was delicious, thanks, you made me look good today!
Tasted amazing but VERY messy…am trying canneloni noodles so hopefully will be less hassle!
