Roti Cannelloni Bake. With a deliciously creamy filling made with spinach, ricotta and herbs, traditional cannelloni shells are substituted with rotis to create this amazing weeknight meal. Drizzled with plenty of tomato passata and grated cheese, this adds an indulgent touch to your everyday meal.

As our homes continue to evolve as the space where we spent most of our time these days, rediscovering our dinners and creating fun twists has become inevitable. I have to say, gone are the days of boring meals- instead think about customizing those recipes and creating statement dishes to keep your dinner times exciting and fun.

In this easy weeknight dinner recipe, I’m bringing in a little twist to the traditional Italian cannelloni bake. Rotis, the quintessential Indian flatbread, are used in place of cannelloni shells to make another delicious dish that’s loaded with flavor and taste. Like cannelloni shells, the rotis are filled with a creamy mixture of spinach, ricotta and herbs. Clearly, a delicious dinner idea with leftover rotis.

How to Make Roti Cannelloni Bake

Rotis in place of cannelloni. The traditional version of this cannelloni bake recipe requires tubular cannelloni shells. But, if you have leftover rotis, you can easily turn them into long tubes filled with delicious ricotta mixture. A super creative way to bake this beautiful dish.

Spinach ricotta mixture makes for a delicious filling. A simple combination of chopped fresh spinach, creamy ricotta and parsley is absolutely delicious. Don’t forget to season with a touch of salt and pepper. The creamy mixture is placed in rotis and rolled up to resemble stuffed cannelloni shells.

Tomato passata and cheese. Top the roti rolls with plenty of tomato passata and cheese. You can either use a combination of parmesan and mozzarella or just mozzarella. I really love that cheese pull. Absolutely delicious!
