Shrimp Alfredo Lasagna Roll Ups

I am not a huge fan of lasagna, I think we ate it so often in college that I now have a mental block against it. Unfortunately, my husband loves it. To compromise, I’ve created a lasagna recipe using two of my favorite things, alfredo sauce and shrimp. I hope you enjoy these shrimp alfredo lasagna roll ups as much as my family does!

Step 1: Cook the Noodles

Start by bringing a large pot of water to a boil and cook the lasagna noodles. Sometimes I add an extra two noodles in case there is some tearing or ripping. This ensures I can always get eight intact noodles for the dish.

Step 2: Cook the Shrimp

While the noodles are cooking, saute the shrimp in melted butter and sprinkle with spices. Make sure not to overcook the shrimp!

Cooking Tip: I always have a bag of raw shrimp in my freezer. Then I thaw the shrimp under running cold water. Don’t forget to peel the shrimp before sauteing!

Step 3: Chop the Shrimp

Roughly chop up the cooked shrimp so it is easier to roll up the lasagna noodles. Whole shrimps would make the rolling up process an issue.

Step 4: Lay Out the Noodles

Once the noodles are cooked, drain the noodles and rinse with cool water. Lay the noodles on a sheet of wax paper.

Step 5: Make the Ricotta Mixture and Top the Noodles

Now make the ricotta mixture. I put the egg in the mixing bowl first, whisk it, then add the ricotta and shredded mozzarella cheese. Spread the mixture onto the lasagna noodles.

Sprinkle the chopped-up pieces of shrimp on top of the ricotta mixture.

Step 6: Make the Alfredo Sauce

This is when I preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

Time to make the alfredo sauce. Mince the garlic and saute in a saucepan with the melted butter. Pour in the half and half and let the sauce thicken for several minutes. When it has reached the right consistency, remove the pan from the heat and add all the parmesan cheese.

Step 7: Roll Up Noodles

Spray a 9X13 pan with nonstick spray. Pour some of the alfredo sauce in the pan, enough to cover the bottom.

Next, roll each lasagna noodle up and place seam-side down in the pan.

Pour the remaining alfredo sauce on top of the lasagna roll ups. Garnish with parsley and extra parmesan cheese if you wish.

Bake for approximately 30 minutes and enjoy!
