Ingredients:

- 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 2.5 cups cottage cheese
- 2 cups tomato sauce
- 10 lasagna noodles, cooked according to package instructions
- 1 egg, lightly beaten
- 1.5 cups mozzarella cheese, shredded
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (°C) and lightly grease a baking dish and ladle one cup of tomato sauce covering the bottom of the dish completely.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the thawed and drained spinach, chopped zucchini, cottage cheese, Parmesan cheese, and egg. Mix well until evenly combined.
- Lay out the cooked lasagna noodles on a cutting board. Spread the spinach and cottage cheese mixture evenly over each noodle, leaving a small border around the edges.
- Starting from one end, carefully roll up each lasagna noodle, creating a neat roll. Place each roll seam-side down in the greased baking dish.
- Pour the remaining tomato sauce over the lasagna roll-ups, ensuring they are evenly coated.
- Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the top of the roll-ups, covering them completely.
- Cover the baking dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for about 30 minutes.
- After 30 minutes, remove the foil and continue baking for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is golden and bubbly.
- Once done, remove the baking dish from the oven and allow the lasagna roll-ups to cool for a few minutes before serving.
