How to Make a Mean Chicken Lasagna

Lasagna has always been my speciality (if someone who doesn’t LOVE cooking can be said to have a specialty). I can make regular Italian lasagna (with ground beef, sausage or both), Mexican lasagna. vegetable lasagna (not a fan), seafood lasagna (very much a fan). I also dig this chicken lasagna, which can be tailored to your preferences. You can experiment with the veggies, make it healthier, etc.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• 2 cups cooked chicken, chopped
• 1 cup frozen spinach (thaw and drain) … or you can use asparagus or broccoli
• 1 can garbanzo beans (if you like them)
• 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 cup shredded Italian blend cheese
• ½ small onion, chopped finely and sautéed in a pan with some olive oil and garlic
• 1 T cornstarch
• 1 t. black pepper
• 1 10-ounce can cream of chicken soup (or mushroom)
• 1 cup sour cream
• ½ cup mayonnaise
• 9 lasagna noodles, cooked

1. Start by preheating your oven to 350 degrees.

2. Combine the following ingredients in a large bowl: chicken, spinach (or other veggie you enjoy), garbanzo beans (if you like them), cheeses, onion/garlic, cornstarch, pepper, soup, sour cream and mayo.

3. Spray a 9x13 pan with cooking spray and place a layer of noodles in the pan.

4. Spread about 1/3 of the chicken mixture over the noodles and repeat twice more.

5. Bake covered for 30 minutes, then uncovered for 15 more.

6. Pig out, and enjoy!
