Lasagna Rolls Recipe and Work Joke

Do you love how creative I can get with my titles?  Ok I'll work on it but at least this way you are getting exactly what it says! :-)

Lasagna Rolls

This one is quick, easy, yummy, and lo cal!!

Box Whole Wheat Lasagna Noodles (follow directions on box to cook)

Filling
Fresh or frozen spinach 1 bunch or 1 bag
1-2 tblsp Olive Oil
Garlic 2-4 cloves peeled and crushed
1/2 white Onion diced
Spices as desired salt, pepper, caraway, oregano, parsley, basil, thyme
Low Fat Ricotta Cheese

Saute garlic and onion and add spices to olive oil, slowly add spinach until cooked.  Let this cool then add to the Ricotta cheese and mix together until smooth

Spread about 2 tblsp of the filling on each noodle and roll.  Put in a glass oven container

Spread freely with marinara sauce, this can be store bought or my favorite homemade sauce I posted here.

Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese then bake at 350 for 20 minutes.

For 2 rolls it is 310 calories and about 6g fat.


Work Joke

When I walked into work this morning I found these on my desk:

At first I was a little weirded out wandering who left that there, thinking maybe I shouldn't eat them in case it was a disgruntled employee.  Then in a meeting later that day my boss asked, "Did you like the tic tacs?" and started laughing.  I said "OOOOHHH that was you? Whew!"  See we are always joking because I startle him, he can never hear me coming and there's times I'm standing all the way in his office and I think he's seen me so I just wait for him to be done with what he's working on but then he looks up surprised because he didn't know I was there. 

We are also both big Seinfeld fans and we talk about that episode with Elaine and the Sideler.  She got him tic tacs to put in his pocket so she could hear him coming.  So when he saw those he had to get them for me! 

How is your December to Remember coming along?  I'm happy to say one week down and I'm sticking to my fitness/nutrition goals.!!!

Happy Training!
