Time 25m

Yield 4 servings (2 halved rolls per person)

Number Of Ingredients 9

Kosher salt
8 lasagna noodles
Olive oil, for tossing noodles
1 1/2 cups part-skim ricotta
3 tablespoons grated Parmesan
5 sun-dried tomatoes packed in oil, finely chopped
1 cup loosely packed fresh basil leaves, torn
24 pepperoni slices, optional
1 cup marinara sauce, for serving

Steps:

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the lasagna noodles according to package directions. You may want to cook an extra noodle or 2 in case they rip. Drain and toss with some oil. Drape the noodles over the edge of the pot, without overlapping, to cool.
Meanwhile, mix the ricotta, Parmesan, tomatoes and 1/2 teaspoon salt together in a medium bowl.
Lay out the noodles and evenly divide the ricotta mixture on the noodles, spreading it from end to end of each noodle. Top each with about a few pieces of basil and 3 pepperoni slices per roll if using. Roll up and cut each roll in half to make 16 cylinders. Pack 4 pieces, ruffle-side up, in each lunch container and refrigerate. Pack 1/4 cup of marinara sauce in a separate container with each serving.
