This lasagna was a bit too cheesy for my taste, but my kids loved it. I think next time I'll use less cheese.

This lasagna was a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved it. I think next time I'll use less taco seasoning.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I always have chicken leftover from my Sunday roast chicken and this is a great way to use it up.

I love that this recipe uses chicken instead of beef. It's a healthier option and it tastes just as good.

The taco seasoning really gives this lasagna a unique flavor. It's a great way to change up the classic lasagna recipe.
