Easy, Low-fat Chicken Lasagna

"This recipe derived from the need to use leftover grilled chicken when I was really in the mood for lasagna! The grill flavor really lent it a good flavor- so I suggest using leftover grilled or rotisserie chicken for this."

  1. This lasagna was delicious! I used a red pepper since that was what I had and it added more color to the dish. I used frozen grilled chicken nuggets from Schwan's that I had on hand - I warmed them up first in microwave. The kitchen smelled fantastic while it was cooking and I was definitely pleased with the results. Easy to make and lower calories -- 2 thumbs up!
     
  2. Very tasty! My family really enjoyed this. I didn't use the cayanne pepper because my two young girls don't like spicy food. I did add some italian seasoning to the chicken when I was browning it though.
     
  3. Wow!!! This recipe was awesome! I didn’t have yellow peppers, so I used some green and red. It turned out fabulous. A friend of mine and her sister came over for dinner, and they couldn’t stop eating it. Also, my ten year old son said that this dish is one of the best dinner’s I’ve ever made.
     
  4. I have made this recipe multiple times for company. It is excellent. Use whatever bell peppers are on sale...it doesn't really matter what color. Also, do adjust the amount of cayenne pepper if you don't like spiciness. We like it as is but we also like a bit of heat in our food.
     
  5. This was an excellent lasagna. I definitly loved the chicken for a change, thank you!

<p>I live in athens, ga and have a seasonal peanut brittle making business. I also do some catering and personal chefing. For fun i like gardening, listening to music, reading magazines and cookbooks, playing tennis, playing with my dogs (2 labs, 1 yorkie)and cooking. My favorite cookbook is Joy of Cooking and I am addicted to watching the food network. I love Jamie Oliver's style. A pet peeve in the kitchen is my husband picking at the food before it's ready. (Maybe I should take that as a compliment!)</p>
