This is a fantastic variation to the more traditional beef mince lasagne. It is just as delicious and provides a lovely creamy finish through each layer.
Chicken is the base for this lasagne. Layered between each lasagne sheet is a beautiful mix of chicken, ricotta, egg, parmesan, spinach and alfredo sauce. Topped with diced tomatoes and mozzarella, then baked to an amazing creamy finish. A wonderful variation to a traditional favourite that will become a new favourite.
Just like a traditional lasagne, leftovers taste great and this dish also freezes easily for reheating when convenient.
