Number Of Ingredients 7

2 (12 oz) cans evaporated milk
1 (1 oz) pkg. Hidden Valley dry Salad Dressing & Seasoning Mix (not the dip blend) -it IS gluten free
3 C. cubed, cooked, chicken
1/8 tsp pepper
1 (16oz) lasagna noodles, cooked (I used 9 noodles) -use gluten free penne pasta
1 1/2 to 2 C cheddar cheese, grated
1 1/2 to 2 C mozzarella cheese, grated

Steps:

  • Combine evaporated milk and Ranch dressing and pepper in a 3 quart heavy saucepan. Heat over low heat, stirring frequently until dry ingredients are dissolved. Simmer, uncovered, 25 minutes, stirring frequently. Sauce will thicken slightly. Layer half of lasagna noodles, chicken, sauce, and cheese in well-greased 9×13 pan. Repeat layers again. Bake at 350 for 35-40 minutes or until hot and bubbly. Let rest 10 minutes before serving. *Next time I will try penne pasta (maybe like 2 1/2 C worth pasta uncooked) and do it like a casserole.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of cheeses: To create a rich and flavorful lasagna, use a blend of cheeses such as mozzarella, cheddar, and Parmesan.
  • Cook the chicken thoroughly: Before adding the chicken to the lasagna, make sure it is cooked through to prevent any foodborne illnesses.
  • Don't overcook the lasagna: To prevent the lasagna from becoming dry, avoid overcooking it. The lasagna is done when the cheese is melted and bubbly and the noodles are tender.
  • Let the lasagna rest before serving: After baking the lasagna, let it rest for at least 15 minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and the lasagna to set.
  • Serve the lasagna with a side salad or bread: To complete the meal, serve the lasagna with a side salad or bread.
