Ingredients and Helpful Tips

Lasagna Noodles

Use traditional boiled noodles or oven-ready lasagna sheets. If using no-boil noodles, make sure your sauce is slightly thinner so the pasta cooks properly.

Cooked Chicken

Shredded rotisserie chicken is a convenient option that adds great flavor. You can also use baked or poached chicken breasts. The key is using tender, juicy chicken.
