These Ham and Swiss Lasagna Rolls are filled with ham and Swiss cheese and then covered in a cheesy white sauce! The perfect holiday ham recipe idea!
Lasagna is one of those dishes that are easy to put together and always a crowd favorite! Your traditional lasagna recipe is typically filled with creamy ricotta, tomato sauce and delicious mozzarella cheese, but I decided to change it up a bit.
For a twist on this traditional dish, I changed up the sauce and cheese and rolled them into lasagna rolls versus making a layered casserole. I basically made it into one mouth watering ham casserole recipe!
When it comes to the holidays, there always seems to be tons of leftovers even though everyone loads their plates up and eats their share. This Ham and Swiss Lasagna Rolls recipe is the perfect idea when it comes to what to do with leftover ham.
All you have to do is dice up some of that leftover ham and store it in the fridge to use for a recipe like this one. It’s simple and delicious, as well as it gives you a great excuse to use up some of the leftovers without letting them go to waste.
The combination of the creamy Swiss cheese with the ham and broccoli makes this dish perfect for a family dinner.

Thanks! I love lasagna roll-ups too but have a hard time with all the tomato sauce. I figured this was a great way to get my fix without all of the acid from the tomato sauce. 🙂
Pinning! This sounds delish and something new to try!
