One Bite Mini Lasagna Roll Ups Recipe · i am a food blog (1)

I think lasagna might be one of my favorite ever pasta dishes. It might be a hold over from when I was little, but most likely it is just because it is so good. When I was small, my brother was obsessed withlasagna. It might have been because of his love forGarfield, but maybe he, like everyone else in the world, loves baked noodles, sauce, and cheese? I’ll have to ask him. Anyway, for that reason alone lasagna really reminds me of childhood and all that is right in the world.

I’ll take lasagna in any form I can get: mini lasagna cups, kind of fancy dinner party lasagna, or lasagna of the roll up variety. But, I think I may have happened on the ultimate lasagna form. I present to you, one bite mini lasagna roll ups! Each roll up is a perfect one bite trifecta of sauce, noodle, and cheese. I love how cute they are, how perfect they are for parties, and how they taste great warm or at room temperature.

They were so good Mike and I kept saying to each other, okay, only one more. Then, all of a sudden, the entire plate was gone and there were no more “one mores” to be had and I was very sad so I made them again the next day and then again the day after that. By that time I still hadn’t had enough lasagna bites but I had practically eaten a whole lasagna by myself so I told myself, enough.

But really, there’s never enough lasagna because lasagnas are noodles and noodles are my everything and I try to live that noodle life whenever and however I can.

Wishing you lasanga in your very near future,
cheese, sauce, and noodles,
xoxo steph

One Bite Mini Lasagna Roll Ups Recipe
makes 24 bites


  • 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella
  • cooked lasagna noodles
  • 1-2 cups bolognese or marinara sauce
  • 1 cup béchamel, see recipe below
  • 1/4 cup finely shredded parmesan
  • finely chopped flat leaf parsley, if desired

Heat the oven to 375°F.

Sprinkle a bit of cheese into the bottoms of a non-stick mini muffin tray. As it melts and gets crispy, the cheese will help hold your lasagna roll together so you can just pick it up and eat it.

Cook the noodles according to the package and drain. Cut noodles into strips about 1 inch in height and 4-5 inches in length. I used fresh lasagna noodles sliced into eight width-wise. Regular lasagna noodles would work too, sliced in half length-wise, then again in half width-wise.

On the lasagna strip, spread on a bit of bolognese, then béchamel, then a light sprinkling of parmesan. Roll up tightly then pop into the prepared mini muffin tin. Repeat until all of your sauce and noodles are finished. Top generously with shredded mozzarella and whatever parmesan you might have left.

Bake for 30 minutes or until the cheese is golden and toasty. Let cool in the pan for at least 5-10 minutes, then use a plastic offset spatula to pull them out. Top with flat leaf parsley if desired and enjoy!

Quick Basic Béchamel Sauce
makes about 1 cup


  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 2 tablespoons flour
  • 1 cup milk

In a small sauté pan or skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the flour and stir constantly for 1-3 minutes, until completely smooth and incorporated. Pour in the milk in a thin stream while whisking. It might start out lumpy, but keep adding the milk and whisking and it will smooth out. Keep on medium heat, stirring occasionally, for about 5-8 minutes, or until the sauce thickens.

    Lasagna is really an amazing pasta dish. I think I haven’t been eating it a lot since I was a child and I have know idea why. Anyway these rolls seriously inspired my to get started with some lasagne experiments :)

    Yay. I have been anxiously awaiting this recipe. Hehe. I wonder tho if I could just skewer them and put in the oven if I don’t have a mini muffin pan or if I need to make these on a larger scale.

      i think skewering them would work, depending on how tender you cook your pasta. otherwise, you can put them all in a regular baking pan, snuggled up against each other. they’ll just be more pull-apart than individual.

    Can you make these the night before? If so, do wait to bake them until ready to serve?

    I made these! I used regular lasagna sheets and cut them into quarters as suggested. I don’t have a mini muffin pan so I nestled them all together in a small pan. Great way to use up a small amount of leftover lasagna.

Do you put cheese on every layer of lasagna? ›

Depends on how you feel about cheese. Personally, I think lasagna should be a stretchy, gooey, cheesy mess, so I put cheese everywhere it will fit. Traditional lasagne are msde by layering pasta, ragú alla Bolognese, bechamel sauce and freshly grated Parmigiano Reggiano. Each layer must be repeated at least 4 times.
