Lasagna Rolls

I have been craving lasagna. I don't know if it's because it's so filling or if it's because I love pasta. I wanted to try something new. Since being in the UAE, I've made a regular lasagna and a lasagna ring for a party we hosted. So, I went into my repertoire and pulled out these delicious roll ups! They are so cheesy and in my house anything cheesy will be devoured.
