Chicken and Spinach Lasagna image

This recipe makes a lot, but it will freeze well should you decide against grazing over leftovers for a few days, and it's certainly worth making extra if you are going to go to all the trouble of making lasagna in the first place.

Time 1h15m

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

6 pieces lasagna noodles, uncooked
1/2 cup chopped onion
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 1/2 cups cooked chicken breast halves, chopped
1 teaspoon dried basil, crushed
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
2 cups skim milk
1 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed, drained
1 (15 ounce) carton part-skim ricotta cheese
1 beaten egg
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
1 (8 ounce) package shredded mozzarella cheese

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan, cook onion in butter until tender.
  • Stir in cornstarch, basil, garlic powder and nutmeg.
  • Add milk all at once.
  • Cook and stir until thickened and bubbly; stir in spinach.
  • In medium bowl, stir in together Ricotta and egg.
  • Add mozzarella and half of parmesan; mix well.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Arrange three of the uncooked lasagna pieces in bottom of a greased 12x7 rectangular baking dish.
  • Top with half of spinach mixture, half the cooked chicken and half the Ricotta mixture.
  • Repeat layers.
  • Top with remaining Parmesan cheese.
  • Now tent the baking dish with foil and seal well (you don't want the foil touching the top of the lasagna). Bake for 60 minutes or until mixture is bubbly.
  • Let stand 10 minutes (with this method you will never need to precook lasagna noodles again) Enjoy!

I'm a vegetarian, so I substituted tofu for the chicken. It was still delicious!

I had a hard time finding no-boil lasagna noodles, so I used regular noodles and boiled them for a few minutes before assembling the lasagna. It turned out great!
