Preheat oven to 500 degree. combine beef, bread crumbs, milk, eggs, onion, garlic, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Shape into 1 - 1 1/2 inch meatballs, around each piece of frozen mozzarella. Seal meatballs well to keep cheese from oozing out.

Lasagna Roll-ups:

What You'll Need:

1 (28-ounce) jar spaghetti sauce, divided
1 (2-pound) container ricotta cheese
2 cups mozzarella cheese, divided
1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
3 eggs
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
1 teaspoon salt
12 to 14 lasagna noodles, prepared according to package directions

In a large bowl, combine ricotta cheese, 1 cup mozzarella cheese, the Parmesan cheese, eggs, parsley, and salt until well blended. Place in freezer bag. Provide lasagna noodles and spaghetti sauce.

Serving Day: Thaw cheese mixture. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Pour half the spaghetti sauce over the bottom of a 9- x 13-inch baking dish. Cook lasagna noodles.

Spoon cheese mixture over lasagna noodles, distributing evenly, and roll up tightly. Place rollups seam-side down in prepared baking dish; top with remaining sauce. Sprinkle with remaining mozzarella cheese.

Bake 35 to 40 minutes, or until heated through.

For lighter lasagna roll ups, substitute reduced-fat ricotta cheese, part-skim mozzarella cheese, and reduced-fat spaghetti sauce. And feel free to use whole wheat lasagna noodles instead.

We don't know about you, but we love to start most any Italian meal with a crisp and cool Caesar salad!
