Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
  2. Cook lasagna noodles in boiling water until al dente, about 8-10 minutes, then drain and lay flat to cool.
  3. In a skillet, sauté chopped onion in olive oil until translucent, add minced garlic and sliced mushrooms, cooking for 5-7 minutes until golden, then stir in spinach and season with salt and pepper before cooling.
  4. In a mixing bowl, combine ricotta cheese, half of mozzarella, Parmesan, and the cooled mushroom-spinach mixture, then add the egg and mix until well blended.
  5. Spread 2-3 tablespoons of the filling on each noodle, roll tightly and place seam-side down in the baking dish.
  6. Pour marinara sauce over the rolls and sprinkle with remaining mozzarella and optional extra Parmesan.
  7. Cover tightly with foil and bake for 25-30 minutes; then uncover and bake for an additional 5 minutes to brown the cheese.
  8. Let the rolls rest for about 5 minutes before serving, and garnish with fresh basil and grated Parmesan.
