CHICKEN MUSHROOM LASAGNA
This white sauce lasagne is a favorite. It's good enough to serve to company. I usually make a Caesar salad and have some crusty french bread on hand. If I don't have cooked chicken on hand, I'll buy a roasted one from the store and debone it, using part of it in here and saving the rest for another meal.

Steps:
- Cook Lasagna noodles in large pot of boiling water according to package directions. Carefully lay noodles out flat on wax paper and set aside.
- Melt butter in saucepan or deep skillet, add mushrooms, minced garlic, chopped onions, salt and lemon juice. Cook 5 min @ medium heat. Stir in flour and chicken bouillon - blend well. Add milk and cook @ Med-high or until slightly thick (at least 5 minutes). Stir in chicken, parsley and marjoram (or basil) and set aside.
- Here's an easy trick I learned with the noodles:.
- Mix the ricotta and shredded mozzarella. Spread on Lasagna noodles, pressing it with your fingers. This will make it easier to layer.
- Spread 1/3 cup of the sauce in the bottom of a 9 x 12 pan. (The disposable GLAD ones work great). Lay 3 noodles spread with the ricotta and mozzarella side by side, slightly overlapping if necessary, 1/3 of remaining sauce and sprinkle with 2 TBL of the parmesan. Repeat twice ending with parmesan - can use extra on top if desired.
- Bake at 325 for 45 minutes. Let stand 15 min before serving.

PORTOBELLO MUSHROOM LASAGNA
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil with 1 tablespoon salt and a splash of oil. Add the lasagna noodles and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Drain and set aside.
- For the white sauce, bring the milk to a simmer in a saucepan. Set aside. Melt 8 tablespoons (1 stick) of the butter in a large saucepan. Add the flour and cook for 1 minute over low heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon. Pour the hot milk into the butter-flour mixture all at once. Add 1 tablespoon salt, the pepper, and nutmeg, and cook over medium-low heat, stirring first with the wooden spoon and then with a whisk, for 3 to 5 minutes, until thick. Set aside off the heat.
- Separate the mushroom stems from the caps and discard the stems. Slice the caps 1/4-inch thick. Heat 2 tablespoons of oil and 2 tablespoons of the butter in a large (12-inch) saute pan. When the butter melts, add half the mushrooms, sprinkle with salt, and cook over medium heat for about 5 minutes, until the mushrooms are tender and they release some of their juices. If they become too dry, add a little more oil. Toss occasionally to make sure the mushrooms cook evenly. Repeat with the remaining mushrooms and set all the mushrooms aside.
- To assemble the lasagna, spread some of the sauce in the bottom of an 8 by 12 by 2-inch baking dish. Arrange a layer of noodles on top, then more sauce, then 1/3 of the mushrooms, and 1/4 cup grated Parmesan. Repeat 2 more times, layering noodles, sauce, mushrooms, and Parmesan. Top with a final layer of noodles and sauce, and sprinkle with the remaining Parmesan.
- Bake the lasagna for 45 minutes, or until the top is browned the sauce is bubbly and hot. Allow to sit at room temperature for 15 minutes and serve hot.

I came up with this recipe for my son's dinner tonight. (The rest of us were having a tomato based lasagne, which he doesn't eat.) I tried keeping this simple for his tastes, so feel free to add extra herbs or vegetables to suit your own tastes! :)
