My kids love lasagna and I love all things with tomatoes, basil and mozzarella – so I figured why not throw it all into one? This is actually a healthy version of lasagna and it is full of flavor. You are going to love it.
Ever since I was little, I loved Caprese Salad. It just had the most amazing flavor and texture to it. I couldn’t get over how delicious it was. I got older, and still loved the taste, and decided that I wanted to make it into more of a meal.
I came across a similar Caprese Lasagna recipe, but I switched a few ingredients up, added a lot of my own favorites, and created this beautiful masterpiece.
This is my new go to dinner, because it is so light, yet filling, and tastes so fresh. You need to try this one.
what could i use instead of chicken?
This recipe calls for shredded chicken. I love including a little protein in my meals, and chicken was a perfect fit for this recipe.
However, there are a few different meats you could use with this recipe, and it would taste just as delicious, if not more delicious.
Here is what we recommend:
-shredded turkey breast
-ground turkey
-ground beef
-turkey sausage
-beef sausage
-meatless
If you are not a meal lover, or a vegetarian, this recipe could easily be made without meat. My kids love chicken, and it is very clean and lean, so we usually go for chicken.
However, you don’t have to add meat, if you don’t want to.
As in most all lasagna recipes, be sure your meat is cooked, before adding it to the recipe. It won’t dry out, I promise. This is a very saucy recipe, and it is getting cooked in-between layers of noodles.
If you stick to the recipe, your meat won’t get over-cooked.
