Chicken Bacon Mushroom Lasagna Rollups
Chicken, bacon, mushroom lasagna rollups are everything you’d think they’d be, creamy, salty, warm pure comfort food. Topped with a homemade Alfredo Sauce these rollups are the food equivalent of McDreamy and McSteamy all rolled into one (wink). The best thing about lasagna rollups is that there’s no worry when you cut into it that you might accidentally pull all the noodles and cheese with a serving like you can with regular lasagna. With lasagna rollups each serving is one neat little rolled up bundle all ready to go. They’re the best!
We made a quick video so you can see them in action:

Bring to a simmer and then remove from heat and stir in the parmesan cheese. Temper the egg yolk before adding into the sauce by adding a little sauce with the egg yolk and mixing it with the sauce.
