Number Of Ingredients 16

SAUCE
30 oz canned diced tomatoes
2 small can tomato paste
1 Tbsp dried basil
1 Tbsp dried oregano
1 Tbsp dried parsley
1/2 c coconut milk
1 tsp onion powder or salt
1 tsp garlic salt
LASAGNA
1 pkg no boil lasagna noodles
2-3 c shredded cooked chicken
2 pkg frozen chopped spinach, thawed
2 c ricotta cheese
2 eggs
2 c freshly grated mozzarella cheese

Steps:

  • 1. In a large pan, add the tomatoes, paste, herbs, and coconut milk (if you don't want coconut milk, you can substitute with cream and a little sugar). Stir to combine and cook over low heat for about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • 2. Meanwhile, squeeze out as much liquid from the spinach as possible. Mix together the spinach, shredded chicken, the ricotta cheese and the eggs in a large bowl.
  • 3. When sauce is ready, take a 13x9 baking dish and spoon some sauce on the bottom. Layer with 3 lasagna noodles. Spread the ricotta mixture atop the noodles. Top with some sauce and a little mozzarella cheese. Repeat layers, ending with sauce and mozzaerlla cheese on top layer.
  • 4. Cover with tin foil and bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes. Remove foil, bake 10 minutes more. Remove from oven and let stand 10 minutes before serving.
