Lasagna Rolls with Homemade Pasta Sauce

I adore lasagna rolls - they are such a great (and easy!) comfort dish for entertaining.  I think that our special addition, a slow-cooked, homemade pasta sauce, truly enhances the dish.  After the sauce spends all day in the slow cooker, it smells and tastes absolutely amazing!  Sometimes I bake the rolls without the sauce and add it before serving, and other times I bake them with the sauce (Side note:  The noodles will absorb a good amount of sauce, so keep some on reserve if you bake them with the sauce.)  Share this dish with the ones that you love, they will love it too!  Best dishes and yummy dreams!
