My Lasagna Dilemma

In my Crazy Week post last week, I mentioned the fact that I had made 2 kinds of Lasagna for a dinner for 15.  I got several comments about the lasagna.

Comment #1  My dear son, living in the Middle East, asked me to please stop talking about Lasagna, as that is the one American dish that he is unable to make for himself in Jordan.  (He can't find the ingredients, or anything similar.)

Comments #2 & #3  A couple of ladies asked for my recipe.

So, I am having to not honor my son's request (and make him very sad), in order to honor the requests of two of my faithful readers.  Sorry Jeremiah!  I'll make you some when you get home ... in 97 days.

Laurel's Chicken Lasagna

This makes an 11 x 15 glass casserole dish ... so you'll have to cut back the quantities a bit if you are only making a 9 x 13.  Sorry!

Bowl #1

2 lb. Cottage Cheese
3       Eggs
1 cup Grated Mozzarella Cheese


Bowl #2

6 cups Chicken pieces - diced and boiled
2 jars Alfredo Sauce (15 oz. each) - set aside 1/3 cup
1/2     Onion - chopped
1 can  Mushroom Pieces (6.5 oz)
1/4 cup Milk - use to clean out jars and add to mix
6 pieces Bacon - cooked and crumbled


Using an 11 x 15 glass casserole dish ...

Put 1/3  cup Alfredo Sauce and 1/3 cup Water in dish.  Mix and spread.

Layer (5 times) ...

Lasagna Noodles
Bowl #1 Mix
Bowl #2 Mix

Drizzle 1/8 cup Water over top layer.

Cover with foil.  Bake at 375 for 50 minutes.  Remove foil.  Top with 1-2 cups Grated Mozzarella Cheese.  Bake an additional 5-10 minutes.


I created this dish a few years ago, and it gets rave reviews every time I serve it to company (which is often).   Let me know if your families enjoy it!

  1. I actually thought about this dilemma when I saw the comments...

    But then I remembered... Jeremiah doesn't like chicken! So, when he reads this he just needs to focus on the CHICKEN part of this recipe. (I, however, think is sounds WONDERFUL!)

  2. Too funny! I had the same thought. Since Jeremiah doesn't like chicken ... he won't mind me posting this recipe.

    Maybe I could send him some lasagna noodles, and he could make Goat Lasagna. Yuck!

  3. WHOOOO HOOOO!!! Thank you...I am going to make this next week. I have not put the mushrooms in due to the other half not liking them. Thanks!

  4. I didn't notice in the instructions. . . Do You pre-cook the lasagna noodles, or use the no-boil ones? There's so many different options with pasta now-a-dayz, that I didn't want to get it wrong.
    Sounds Yumm! I think I'll make it for the next Game Night potluck I go to!

  5. I just buy regular lasagna noodles, but do NOT pre-cook them. The water/sauce on the bottom of the dish ... and the water drizzled over the top ... does the cooking.

    I used to pre-cook, and then hated working with boiling hot noodles. So, I hardly ever made lasagna. After I learned how to make it without pre-cooking, it became one of our family's favorite meals.

    Enjoy!
