Pinterest Success {24} Creamy Tomato Basil Chicken Lasagna

 

 

 

Lasagna is something I rarely make, except for company, because the recipe I use (my Mother's) is very time consuming. You need to cook the tomato sauce for quite some time, before even beginning to put the layers of the lasagna together. This recipe, that I pinned to try someday, caught my eye, because the cream based tomato sauce was not cooked in advance. And, it looked delicious too :-)

It was a little labor intensive putting it together, like any lasagna, but soon it was in the oven, bubbling away while I went for my daily walk. When I returned, my kitchen was fragrant with the scents of basil and melting cheese and I knew we were in for a treat.

We enjoyed this lasagna very much and it was a very nice departure from the usual meat lasagna. The combination of the chicken and the creamy tomato, basil sauce was very good. With a crusty loaf of bread, this was an amazing meal - no need to save this lasagna recipe for company.

Happy Wednesday!

  3. It looks really good. I just made homemade lasagna for the first time last month. It does take a lot of time but it was worth it.
