Pizza Lasagna Roll-Ups

Ricotta, spinach, pepperoni and spicy Italian sausage all rolled up in perfectly portioned lasagna noodles and covered with seasoned tomato sauce and Mozzarella cheese – what’s not to love? This is also a great way to sneak spinach in for any families with picky eaters. Better still, each of these Pizza Lasagna Roll-Ups is super filling and just 289 calories or 7 WW Points!

If you’re intrigued by the Lasagna Roll-Ups but not in the mood for Italian, check out my recipes for Spinach and Artichoke Lasagna Roll-Ups, Buffalo Chicken Lasagna Roll-Ups or Mexican Lasagna Roll-Ups! Since these recipes have a few steps and a 40 minute cook time, they take a little bit more time start-to-finish than some of my other recipes. They’re all very simple to put together though! You may want to make these Lasagna Roll-Ups on a weekend or a weeknight when you’re not in a rush.

Pizza Lasagna Roll-Ups
Ingredients
- 8 uncooked lasagna noodles, use whole wheat noodles if following the WW Purple plan
- 15 oz can tomato sauce
- 1 cup pizza sauce
- ½ teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1 lb uncooked hot Italian poultry sausage, casings removed if present (I used Wegmans patties, you can use chicken or turkey sausage)
- 2 oz turkey pepperoni, chopped (reserve 8 slices un-chopped for topping)
- 1 (15 oz) container fat free Ricotta cheese
- 1 (10 oz) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed until dry
- 1 large egg
- 2 oz 2% shredded Mozzarella cheese
Instructions
- Pre-heat the oven to 350. Lightly mist a 9x13 baking dish with cooking spray and set aside.
- Boil and salt a large pot of water and cook lasagna noodles according to package instructions. Drain and rinse with cold water. Lay noodles flat on a clean dry surface and set aside.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the tomato sauce, pizza sauce and Italian seasoning and stir together. Set aside.
- Place the sausage in a large skillet over medium heat and cook until browned, breaking the meat up into small pieces as it cooks. When the sausage is cooked through, add the chopped pepperoni and 1/3 cup of the tomato sauce mixture and stir to combine. Remove from heat.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, spinach and egg and stir until well combined. Spoon 1/3 cup of the cheese mixture onto each lasagna noodle and spread across the surface leaving a little room (about ½”) at the far end with no toppings. Top the cheese layer on each noodle with the meat mixture from step four, evenly dividing the meat between the noodles. Starting with one end (not the one with space at the end), roll the noodle over the filling until it becomes a complete roll. Repeat with all noodles.
- Spoon ½ cup of the tomato sauce mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread across the bottom. Place the lasagna rolls seam down in the dish and spoon or pour the remaining sauce over top. Sprinkle the Mozzarella over the top of the rolls and place a pepperoni on each one. Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 40 minutes.

These look yummy! Does one piece equal one serving?
Yup!
I want to make these, they look delicious, but I’m only cooking for 2 people. Do you think they I could freeze the extras before cooking?
Do you think that* (sorry, typo)
My son and I made this tonight, it was DELICIOUS! He ate 4 & 1/2!! (he’s 14!) I ate 1 & 1/2 and still stayed within my points!
I made these yesterday! They were delicious. Thank you for sharing.
Hi Emily! Just wanted to thank you for this recipe–I made it this weekend for my parents following my dad’s neck surgery. He is so picky (and inherently suspicious of “healthy” food), and he went back for seconds! Unprecedented! We all loved it so much–its definitely a keeper. (I added baby bella mushrooms to the turkey sausage mixture too because I love mushrooms & pepperoni together. It was fab! Next time, I think I’ll throw some black olives on top too! So many possibilities.)
I made this over the weekend as a “make-ahead” meal. I baked them off a couple of days later. These are delicious! Definitely a keeper!
OMG!! These were absolutely wonderful…and, fun to make. I can’t wait to try the other variations of roll-ups on your site. I will be making these again, and again!
Do these freeze well?
Just made these for lunch for company. They were excellent.
Hi I have a question – I made these last night and created the recipe in my calorie tracking app. Are you using speciality ingredients? when adding up the above the calories were 386 per piece not 289. I used reduced fat and everything where indicated. Sometimes I fine slight discrepancies in calories online to adding up but 100 seems like a lot. Any ideas in what I could be doing wrong? Your recipes look good so I want to start using them but confused about the calories!
