10ouncespackage frozen spinach, cooked, and well drained.
8ouncespackage cream cheese(room temp.)
1/4cupParmesan cheese, grated
1/4cupchopped onion
1/4teaspoonblack pepper
1clovegarlic , minced
1largeegg, slightly beaten
1cupgrated Mozzarella cheese(do not add to filling-keep separate!)

To Make Lasagna Roll:
Cook lasagna noodles according to package instructions. Remove from heat; drain.
On wax paper, arrange the noodles overlapping the long (curly) sides to form a large rectangle.
Spread cheese/spinach filling over surface of noodles. Spread grated Mozzarella cheese over the cheese/spinach filling.
Starting at short ends of the pasta (non curly), roll up the pasta (in jelly roll fashion), using the wax paper to help. Tuck the ends under and firm up the roll, as you roll it up, continuing to use the wax paper as a guide. When it is roll completely, carefully transfer (might have to use two spatulas) the roll to a large (9x13) baking sheet. Carefully remove the wax paper. Seam side should be down on the sheet.
To Make Sauce:
In a small bowl, combine tomato sauce, sugar, basil and oregano. Stir to combine.
To Finish Roll:
Spread the sauce over top and sides of entire lasagna roll. Grate Parmesan cheese over top of the roll. Bake in preheated oven at 350 degrees for 35 minutes. Remove baking sheet from oven. Let Lasagna Roll stand for 5 minutes before attempting to slice. Using a sharp knife, slice into serving sizes, and using a spatula, place slices onto individual serving plates. Enjoy!
