Eating healthier and losing weight seems to be an ongoing goal for me. So, today I’m sharing one of my all-time favorite and super healthy dishes. This Spinach Lasagna Rolls recipe was discovered back in 2011 over on Ginas Skinny Recipes. I’ve been hooked ever since and made a few very simple changes. These lasagna rolls are perfectly portioned. Another reason to fall in love with this dish is that each piece/serving is only 6 points on Weight Watchers. Oh yeah, baby! I’ve joined Weight Watchers again to get back on track, so this dish is back in the rotation {smile}. While they don’t necessarily taste healthier, it feels good to eat something that feels like a splurge. Does that make sense? Regardless, they’re delicious and the hubby enjoys them too.
A more recent discovery is that I tend to use a lot of tomatoes in my cooking… maybe because I like a lot of Italian style foods {giggle}. Whether it be crushed, diced, pureed or a sauce, I enjoy using tomatoes. Ready to make some tasty Spinach Lasagna Rolls? Let’s do it!
