Instructions
- Prepare a simple tomato sauce by simmering olive oil, onion, basil, oregano and jovial tomatoes in a medium saucepan with salt to taste for 20 minutes.
- Bring 2 quarts of water to a boil with salt to taste in a large skillet. Cook two lasagna noodles at a time for 5 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and spread out on a clean kitchen towel. Proceed with cooking two noodles at a time until you have finished the box.

- Cover the bottom of a 9 x 13 baking dish with half of the tomato sauce.
- Spread 2 tbsp. of the ricotta filling over three quarters of the lasagna noodle.
- Roll the noodle, then place in the baking dish with the end on the bottom. Continue with all of the noodles, making three rows of cannelloni.
- Ladle the rest of the tomato sauce over the cannelloni and top with grated mozzarella cheese.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 375ºF for 35 minutes.
- Let cool 5 minutes before serving.
