Chicken And Spinach Cannelloni Rolls
Brace yourself, I have come up with the BEST recipe that I’ve ever created to date. Chicken And Spinach Cannelloni Rolls. Seriously.
I could have taken my tried, tested and true Lasagna recipe and made a delicious meal for my family using the lasagna sheets. Yet, I while I’m trying new things, why not keep try a whole new recipe?
The following is a blend of my cannelloni recipe and a couple ingredients which I thought would make this new one stand out – with the delicious Rosé Sauce.
For the moment, pretend I’m shaking you by the shoulders while screaming…
this Chicken And Spinach Cannelloni Rolls recipe is to DIE FOR!!
I don’t post recipes on here that I don’t think people will enjoy. I would recommend all the tasties found in the Recipe Box at My Organized Chaos, because I like them a ton.
How do you make cannelloni?
Whipping up the mixture for the filling is super easy. Rolling them in lasagna sheets is just as simple. Then you have the two-blend sauce which is a no-briner.
This recipe is easy to make and so very delicious you just might want it again the next day. We have!
Not only have I told people to make it, but I have happily offered to make it for them just to ensure they they got a taste. Do you sense my excitement about these roll-ups? {insert jazz hands}.
What can I say? I’m as helpful as I am a recruiter. Let me tell you, they were hooked at first taste.
My family has claimed this Chicken And Spinach Cannelloni Rolls recipe is “better than I’ve ever gotten in an Italian restaurant”. Blush, ya I know.
The kids? I didn’t even notice them eating it so fast, until their plates were licked clean {really!}. We had enough for leftovers for the next night, and discovered they are even better warmed up.
Then the day after that, I was tempted to make it again.
That’s when I learned my lesson to make double batches and freeze a second portion for next time. Yep, this freezes up very nice for later.
I love it when I’m so excited to share a favourite recipe. This one is hands down one of our favourites of all time.
For those that love easy Italian dishes, you also must try this Slow Cooker Easy Lasagne. YUM!
I usually serve this dish with Caesar salad and garlic toast, it makes for the perfect Italian meal.
Also take note that you can make it in the morning and bake later.
Enjoy friends! Also try my Chicken and Spinach Casserole, it’s another great pasta dish using some of the same ingredients.

Easy Chicken And Spinach Cannelloni Rolls are like a tasty lasagna rolled up in pasta love. Will you love the filling or the sauce more?
- 3 skinless boneless Chicken Breasts {cooked}
- 1 pkg ready made Lasagna Sheets
- 1 cup Chopped Spinach Leaves
- 2 tbsp Olive Oil
- 500 g fresh Ricotta Cheese
- 1 Onion finely chopped
- 3 Garlic Cloves minced
- 1 jar Italian Pasta Sauce
- 1.5 cups Rose Sauce
- 1 cup Mozza or Cheddar Cheese {optional yet encouraged}
- salt and pepper to taste
- Mince Chicken Breasts using a processor
- Heat oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Add onion and garlic. Cook for 3 minutes, or until tender.
- Add chicken mince and cook for 5 minutes, stirring with a wooden spoon. Set aside to cool.
- Preheat over to 350°F
- In a bowl combine Ricotta, chopped spinach and a pinch salt and pepper. Add chicken mixture to Ricotta mixture and blend well.
- Cut lasagna sheets crossways so that each sheet makes 2.
- Grease a deep baking dish and spread the Rose Sauce on the bottom. Add 1 cup pasta sauce on top of the Rose Sauce and blend just a little.
- Take one pasta sheet and place approx.1/4 cup of filling along one edge of the pasta and roll.
- Place {seam down} in the dish and repeat with remaining sheets.
- Pour remaining Italian Pasta Sauce over the rolls and sprinkle cheese on top of sauce {I sprinkled a little of the mixture on top as well, since I had some left. That's optional though}
- Bake uncovered for 30-35 minutes or until top bubbles. Let stand 5-10 minutes before serving.

Tammi says
05/25/2012 at 9:30 amgood for you for making, I’ve never tried. The intent was always there, but time, energy … meh. Kudos to you though, that’s great!

05/25/2012 at 8:46 amSoooo pinned this! I don’t know if I will find Olivieri products around here, but I’ll look. Either way, I’ll give these a go!
Tammi says
05/25/2012 at 9:32 amWhere are you Heather? I noticed that Walmart had a full stock and Sobeys had a few varieties. My closest grocer doesn’t carry them, but hopefully soon. Good thing I live in a small city though, going to another is usually the norm.
Thanks for pinning!
🙂
Heather! says
05/25/2012 at 9:36 amIreland. LOL…I’m pretty well accustomed to having to adapt recipes I find online to use products I can find here. I’m sure I’ll figure something out! Who knows…maybe they are sold here?!
Christin says
06/02/2012 at 1:09 pmFresh lasagna sheets are sold at pretty much all large grocery stores in the UK, Heather. I get mine at either Morrisons or Sainsbury’s so if you’ve got one of those near, you’ll be able to find them no problem. They’re typically near the fresh made pizzas. Good luck and enjoy the meal! 🙂

05/25/2012 at 10:37 pmWhat a great product and a really tasty recipe. I’ve always hated the chore of waiting for the water to boil, and then the pasta, and then draining, yada yada – so this skips all those steps and saves quite a bit of time.

Vesper says
07/15/2013 at 9:01 amUnfortunately I can’t get Olivieri Lasagna Sheets in my local store, the ones available are dry so unable to roll, and also I can’t get Cannelloni. Next time we get off the peninsula we will have to stock up on even more products
Tammi says
07/15/2013 at 9:59 amHope you can get your hands on some, they are so handy for many recipes!
