LAY OUT one of the lasagna pasta sheets on a clean work surface and spoon ¼ cup of the ricotta mixture onto pasta. Spread ricotta mixture into an even layer.
ROLL up lasagna pasta starting at the top and place the seam side down into prepared skillet/large baking dish. Repeat this process with remaining pasta sheets.
SPOON remaining marinara sauce over lasagna roll ups and sprinkle the remaining cheddar cheese blend over the top.
