This vegetarian slow-cooker spinach lasagne roll-up recipe offers a clever twist on a Mediterranean favourite. By rolling individual pasta sheets with a rich filling of ricotta, mozzarella and vibrant spinach, you create a dish that is both visually appealing and perfectly portioned. The slow-cooking process allows the flavours of the marinara sauce and Italian herbs to meld beautifully, resulting in a tender, cheesy pasta bake that requires minimal monitoring on the hob.
Ideal for busy weeknights or a relaxed Sunday lunch, this comforting meal is a brilliant way to feed the family. The addition of spinach provides a boost of iron and colour, while the three-cheese blend ensures a satisfyingly indulgent texture. Serve these savoury rolls with a crisp green salad and some warm garlic bread for a complete homemade feast that everyone will enjoy.

How to make Slow-Cooker Spinach Lasagne Rollups
Back to contentsIn a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the lasagne noodles according to the instructions on the box until barely al dente. Drain and set aside.
Meanwhile, in a large bowl, mix the ricotta, mozzarella, Parmesan, Italian seasoning, and eggs. Stir in the spinach.
Pour 1/2 jar of marinara sauce into the bottom of a slow cooker, spreading evenly.
Cut each lasagne noodle in half crosswise. Spread about 1 heaping tablespoon ricotta mixture across one noodle half. Roll up the noodle and place it in the slow cooker, seam-side down. Continue with the remaining noodles and ricotta mixture.
Pour 1 jar of marinara sauce over the top of the rollups. Cover and cook on high for 3 hours. Pour the remaining 1/2 jar of sauce into the slow cooker and allow to heat through before serving.
