CHICKEN LASAGNA FLORENTINE
I have to admit that I usually do not like to cook with "cream of" soups, but my family likes this so much that I make an exception. I would be interested in knowing if your little kiddies like it because my younger brother and sister (who never like to try anything new and under normal circumstances hate spinach) love it.

CHICKEN FLORENTINE LASAGNA ROLLS
A twist on the standard lasagna dish. Fontina, fresh spinach, roasted chicken, cremini mushrooms and sauteed onions make this a great dish. A creamy bechemel sauce and rolled lasagna rolls make this perfect. I admit this takes a little time but worth it. Now I also take advantage of a grocery store roasted chicken for this or you can roast your own. But I do insist on fresh spinach and herbs, but why not take advantage of a little help ... I also get my mushrooms pre-sliced. Take a little help on some store bought items when you can. The fontina to me just adds lots of flavor, but if you can't find it mozzarella will work just fine. This is worthy of entertaining, but the best part ... make it ahead and just refrigerate. Just put in the oven and bake the night of the party, NO work.

Steps:
- Noodles -- Now I do this a little different than most. I bring a 13x9 pan on the stove and fill with water and bring to a light boil. I then boil my noodles flat. To me they boil quicker and less chance of tearing being flat in a pan. Just 5 or so minutes and they are done. Then remove them to a sheet of parchment paper to cool. About 24 noodles. If you want you can always boil in a large pot of water if you prefer the traditional method.
- Cheese -- Mix the grated fontina, parmesan and ricotta. Make sure to reserve 1 cup the fontina and 1/2 parmesan for the top layer. Add in a pinch of salt, pepper to taste and the fresh parsley.
- Chicken -- To a medium saucepan, add the olive oil and bring to medium heat. Add the onions and mushrooms and cook on medium heat until lightly browned about 5-7 minutes. Then add in the shredded chicken and fresh spinach, thyme and chicken broth and cook until everything is well combined. Just add a little salt and pepper to taste. Just simmer until the broth reduces.
- Bechemel -- 4 / 4/ 4/ -- my basic recipe. Melt 4 tablespoons of butter in a medium pot, then add 4 teaspoons of flour and combine, mix well to make a roux and cook just a couple of minutes to get the flour taste out. Then add in 2 cups heavy cream and 2 cups milk and bring to a medium heat to let it thicken, add a pinch of nutmeg.
- Make the Lasagna -- Lay out a noodle, spread with the cheese mixture and then top with the chicken spinach mixture, then another noodle, more cheese and another layer of chicken mixture, then roll.
- In a 13x9 casserole dish add about 1 cup of the bechemel sauce and then place the lasagna rolls, seam side down. Now top with the remaining sauce. Top with the extra fontina and parmesan cheese. Cover and bake 35 minutes at 375, then remove the foil and cook 10 more minutes until bubbly and golden brown. Make sure to let it rest 10 minutes covered before serving.
- Note: I like to use a 13x9, you want to make sure that the pan is not too big and the rolls fit in the pan nicely side by side, this way the sauce tops the rolls and makes a nice crust. You can also make these in individual ramiken or serving dishes, 2 rolls per person. It makes a great way to serve them for a dinner party.
CHICKEN LASAGNA FLORENTINE
One of my sister's student's made this for her at Christmas. Everyone in our family loved-including the kids. We have already made it again. When I did, I doubled the receipe and put it in a 13X9 pan. I also used lower fat ingredients where I could and deleted the mayonnaise altogether (I do not like mayonnaise). The Lasagne was just as good as the first time.

FLORENTINE LASAGNA ROLL
Found this in a supermarket checkout cookbook years ago and it's still a family favorite. One important step is getting the water removed from the spinach as much as possible; after I drain it and squeeze as much out by hand I wrap it in a 4 layer pad of paper towels and squeeze it some more. Save the paper towels and use them later to dry off the noodles so they don't slide all over, this makes it a lot easier to spread the filling. I have listed 2% cheese and 1/3 less fat cream cheese but it started out being made with the full deal, we don't notice any decrease in flavor (I've also made it without the egg a time or two when I ran out and it tastes the same and holds together OK). I also think the filling makes a good spinach dip if you leave out the egg. Cook time includes the 5 minute stand time.

CHICKEN FLORENTINE ALFREDO LASAGNA CUPS
This is super comforting and satisfying. Creamy and rich, but with a nice pop of green from the spinach, pesto, and basil. The chicken gives it some texture and makes it feel like a complete meal on its own. I love the crispy edges of the cheese. Serve with a bright and fresh Geek salad on the side.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray two 12-cup standard muffin tins with cooking spray. Set aside.
- Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook 12 lasagna noodles in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon or a pair of tongs to a colander, leaving water to boil. Rinse noodles with cold water and drain again. Lay noodles flat on a large baking sheet.
- Place spinach in boiling pasta water and stir until wilted, about 30 seconds; drain. Squeeze dry and coarsely chop.
- Stir spinach, chicken, 1 cup mozzarella, and 1 1/2 cups Alfredo sauce together in a large bowl. Set aside.
- Stir ricotta cheese, pesto, and salt together in a medium bowl. Spread 3 tablespoons ricotta mixture onto each lasagna noodle. Working one noodle at a time, cut noodle in half lengthwise. Spread 2 tablespoons chicken mixture onto each noodle half. Roll up lengthwise and place cut-side down in the prepared muffin cups.
- Top each lasagna cup with 1 tablespoon Alfredo sauce. Sprinkle tops of lasagna cups evenly with remaining 2 cups mozzarella and Parmesan, making sure any stray strands of cheese are pushed into the muffin cups around the roll-up. Cover muffin tins with aluminum foil.
- Bake in the preheated oven until bubbly and cheese is melted, about 15 minutes. Uncover and continue to bake until even more bubbly and cheese is browned, about 10 more minutes. Let sit for 5 minutes before removing from muffin tin. Sprinkle with basil and parsley and serve.

Steps:
- Pre-cook your lasagna noodles according to the package directions. Set aside.
- Saute onions and mushrooms in the butter until all the liquid from the mushrooms has evaporated and the onions have softened.

- Stir until cheese has melted and add chicken breast and spinach. Set aside.
- In a small bowl mix ricotta, 1/3 cup parmesan cheese, 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese and egg until well blended.
- Begin to layer the lasagna (I used a deep 9x9 stoneware dish I had, but a 13x9 dish would work as well).
- Spread a small amount of sauce over the bottom of your pan.
- Cover sauce with one layer of pasta.
- Spread 1/2 the ricotta cheese mixture and 1/3 of the remaining mozzarella over the pasta.
- Cover the cheese with 1/3 of the remaining sauce.
- Add another layer of pasta.
- Spread the remaining ricotta mixture and 1/2 the remaining mozzarella over the pasta.
- Cover the cheese with 1/2 of the remaining sauce.
- Add a final layer of pasta.
- Cover the pasta with the remaining sauce and cover the pan with foil.
- You will have some mozzarella and parmesan cheese leftover. Reserve this for later.
- Bake the lasagna at 350 degrees for 1 hour. Uncover the dish and sprinkle the remaining cheeses over the top.
- Return to the oven for 15-20 minutes or until the cheese is golden and the lasagna is bubbling around the edges.
- Let the lasagna rest for 15-20 minutes before serving.
Tips:
- Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all the ingredients and equipment you need. This will help you stay organized and prevent any scrambling.
- Use fresh ingredients: The fresher your ingredients, the better your lasagna rolls will taste. If possible, use organic or locally-sourced ingredients.
- Don't overcook the chicken: Chicken can quickly become dry and tough if it's overcooked. Cook it until it is just cooked through, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
- Use a good quality pasta sauce: The pasta sauce is one of the most important components of the lasagna rolls. Choose a sauce that is flavorful and has a good consistency.
- Don't skimp on the cheese: Cheese is what makes lasagna so delicious! Use a combination of different cheeses, such as mozzarella, Parmesan, and ricotta, to create a rich and flavorful filling.
- Bake the lasagna rolls until they are golden brown: This will help to ensure that they are cooked through and that the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Conclusion:
Chicken Florentine lasagna rolls are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for any occasion. They are sure to be a hit with your family and friends. With a little planning and preparation, you can easily make this dish at home. Just be sure to follow the tips above and you'll be sure to end up with a delicious and satisfying meal.
