Canelons are a type of pasta dish that originated in Italy and are popular in various cuisines, especially in Catalonia, Spain. They consist of large, tubular pasta sheets that are typically filled with a savory mixture, often made from meat, cheese, or vegetables. After being filled, the canelons are usually baked in a sauce, often a béchamel or tomato sauce, and topped with cheese. This dish is commonly served as a hearty main course and is often enjoyed during festive occasions or family gatherings. Canelons can be made in advance, making them a convenient option for meal preparation.
