Hands in the air if you love lasagna! Me too. But do you ever have leftover sheets of lasagna noodles? My box always seems to have just a few more than I really need for a recipe. I created this arugula pesto lasagna roll ups recipes to use up those extra noodles!

I made this recipe with 5 lasagna noodles, because that’s how many I had to use. It just so happens that I could not have fit more into a 9×9 inch pan as well. Feel free to increase the recipe and make more roll ups, just plan on using a bigger pan. Continue reading →

Friends! It is finally asparagus season here in southern Illinois! I have a line up of fun asparagus recipes coming your way, and we will start things off with this mushroom Swiss asparagus tart!
