Preheat oven to 375F. Cook lasagna noodles according to package directions, but do not add salt. Drain and rinse with cool water.

Stir in tomatoes, rosemary and red pepper flakes; break up tomatoes with a spoon. Reduce heat to low. Partially cover pan; simmer sauce until heated through, about 15 minutes.

Place a noodle on a plate. Place a tablespoonful of ricotta mixture at one end. Starting with a short side, roll up noodle jelly-roll style. Repeat with remaining noodles and ricotta mixture.
