Tomato basil risotto meets the lasagna roll
Italian cuisine

I made up this recipe the day after I made a massive batch of my Tomato Basil Risotto with Homemade Ricotta. I also had leftover homemade ricotta and wanted to do something with both other than just eat the same thing two nights in a row. A great skill of mine is using leftovers in unique, sometimes crazy ways. Rarely does anything go unused in my refrigerator! So after thinking for about 5 seconds, I had a wickedly great idea and I texted my husband to say, “We are making lasagna rolls for dinner and stuffing them with the lefty risotto.” He texted me back, “OH MY GOD.” And thus, another favorite recipe was born. I will say, this recipe works best over 2 days, making the risotto one night and the lasagna rolls the next night with the leftovers. I didn't even add in my recipe for homemade ricotta (which is fantastic but not worth the extra time if you're making this on a single day!) Labor intensive? Yes. Worth it? SO MUCH YES!
