Why You Will Love this Recipe

The noodles don't need to be precooked at all. The noodles cook in the oven inside all the delicious buffalo sauce.

The chicken also doesn't need to be precooked at all either but feel free to use leftover rotisserie chicken if you like!

Another time-saving shortcut I use to make this lasagna is to cook some chicken breasts in my Instant Pot. The chicken breasts are done in 20 minutes and are easy to shred. Make the sauce, cheese mixture, and layer everything in the pan. Boom, done. Now all you have to do is be patient and wait for an hour. There's just something about buffalo chicken though. It's like cauliflower and can be turned into anything or made into any recipe!

Ingredients Needed

• Wheat Lasagna Noodles, uncooked
• Skinless chicken breast, cooked and cubed - They’re lean and quick-cooking and always come out juicy and tender. Use an instant-read thermometer to make sure that the chicken is not over cooked. When reading labels for chicken breasts try to find ones that say Organic or Free Range.
• Crushed tomatoes or Marinara Sauce - you can also take a can of whole peeled tomatoes and blend them up in a blender or use a jar of your favorite Marinara sauce
• Franks Buffalo Wing Sauce - The main star of the recipe!
• Low fat ricotta cheese - low fat cottage cheese can also be used for a substitute, also helps reduce the amount of calories in the recipe
• Egg substitutes such as Egg Beaters or 1 egg
• Pepper jack cheese, or blue cheese - Reduced-Fat Cheese has a lower calorie count and less saturated fat than regular cheese, but it may also have a different taste and texture. It also helps with keeping the calorie count pretty low for this recipe.

How to Make Buffalo Chicken Lasagna

Step 1 Preheat oven to 350 degrees and lightly spray a 9x13 baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. In a small mixing bowl, combine ricotta cheese and egg substitute and set aside.

Step 2: In a different mixing bowl, combine water, crushed tomatoes, wing sauce and chicken.

Step 3: Spread approximately one cup of the sauce and chicken mixture across the bottom of the pan, and arrange four of the noodle over the sauce.

Step 4: Spread a layer of sauce over the noodles, and then spread a layer of the ricotta mixture over the sauce. Add another layer of noodles and repeat the process until you end with a layer of just the sauce and chicken mixture. Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 60 minutes.

Step 5: Remove dish from the oven, sprinkle blue cheese crumbles or pepper jack cheese evenly over the top. Place back in the oven uncovered and bake for an additional 15 minutes. Makes 8 servings!

What can I serve lasagna?

• Salad:Get a bag of Ceasar salad from the grocery store and mix it up at home. This is the only way to make a Ceasar Salad. 🙂
• Starches: Make some homemade easy cheesy garlic bread sticks or garlic bread
• Vegetables:Smoked potatoes or smoked asparagus is a great side dish to have with salmon.
