Chicken and Spinach Alfredo

Ingredients

  • 1 (8 ounce) package lasagna noodles
  • 3 cups heavy cream
  • 2 (10.75 ounce) cans condensed cream of mushroom soup
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Garlic Powder
  • 1 roasted chicken, shredded
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 1 cup ricotta cheese
  • 1 bunch fresh spinach, rinsed
  • 3 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook lasagna noodles for 8 to 10 minutes, or until al dente. Drain, and rinse with cold water.
  2. In a saucepan over low heat, mix together heavy cream, cream of mushroom soup, Parmesan cheese, and butter. Simmer, stirring frequently, until well blended.
  3. Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.  Mix in the chicken with Garlic Powder, and cook until heated through. Season with salt and pepper.
  4. Lightly coat the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish with enough of the cream sauce mixture to coat. Layer with 1/3 of the lasagna noodles, 1/2 cup ricotta, 1/2 of the spinach, 1/2 the chicken mixture, and 1 cup mozzarella. Top with 1/2 the cream sauce mixture, and repeat the layers(reserving a cup of sauce). Place the remaining noodles on top, and spread with remaining sauce.
  5. Bake 1 hour in the preheated oven, or until brown and bubbly. Top with the remaining mozzarella, and continue baking until cheese is melted and lightly browned.

Levain Bakery Chocolate Chip Cookie CopyCat
  • 1 cup cold unsalted butter
  • 1 cup light brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 3/4 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 Tbsp cornstarch
  • 3 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup chopped pecans
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Line two cookie sheets with parchment paper.

In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter and sugars with an electric mixer on medium speed. Add eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cornstarch. Gradually add the flour, mixing just until blended. Stir in the chocolate chips and pecans.
