This chicken Alfredo lasagna with ricotta and spinach is so good that my family requests it at least once a week. Serve with diced tomato as a garnish.

Ingredients

  • 1 (16 ounce) package lasagna noodles
  • 1 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach
  • 3 cooked, boneless chicken breast halves, diced
  • 2 (16 ounce) jars Alfredo-style pasta sauce, divided
  • 2 pints ricotta cheese
  • 4 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste

Directions

Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Step 2
Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add lasagna noodles and cook until tender yet firm to the bite, 8 to 10 minutes; drain.

Step 3
Place frozen spinach and 1/2 cup water in a 2-quart nonstick saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-high, cover, and cook, stirring occasionally, until spinach is tender, 6 to 7 minutes. Drain and squeeze out any excess water.

Step 4
Stir together chicken and 1 jar Alfredo sauce in a medium bowl until well combined.

Step 5
Mix together ricotta and spinach in a second medium bowl until well combined.

Step 6
Arrange a single layer of lasagna noodles in a 9×13-inch baking dish, edges overlapping. Pour chicken-Alfredo mixture over noodles and spread evenly. Sprinkle with 1 cup mozzarella. Cover with another layer of noodles. Spread spinach mixture evenly over noodles. Pour 1/2 of the remaining jar of Alfredo sauce over spinach mixture and spread evenly. Sprinkle with 1 cup mozzarella. Lay on a final noodle layer and top with remaining 1/2 jar Alfredo sauce and 2 cups mozzarella. Season with salt and pepper.

Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven until the top is brown and bubbly, 50 to 60 minutes.
