Ingredients

Lasagna Layers

  • Lasagna noodles (no-boil or regular) – quantity as needed for layering
  • Chicken breast – 2 large, cooked and shredded or diced
  • Smoked turkey slices – 8 oz, thinly sliced

Natural Alfredo Sauce

  • Plant-based cheese – 1 1/2 cups shredded
  • Heavy cream substitute – 2 cups
  • Vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural) – 1 tablespoon
  • Garlic – 3 cloves, minced
  • Onion – 1 small, finely chopped
  • Natural gelling agent – 1 teaspoon
  • Nutmeg (natural) – 1/4 teaspoon
  • Salt and pepper – to taste

Toppings and Garnishes

  • Grated plant-based parmesan cheese – 1/2 cup
  • Fresh parsley or basil leaves – for garnish
  • Cracked black pepper – to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Chicken and Smoked Turkey: Cook the chicken breasts until tender, then shred or dice them into small pieces. Slice the smoked turkey into thin strips to layer later for that perfect smoky flavor addition.
  2. Make the Natural Alfredo Sauce: In a saucepan, sauté minced garlic and onions until soft and fragrant. Add the heavy cream substitute along with vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural), a pinch of nutmeg (natural), salt, and pepper. Stir in the natural gelling agent to thicken the sauce gently. Finish by folding in plant-based cheese until melted and smooth.
  3. Assemble the Lasagna Layers: In a baking dish, spread a thin layer of sauce first, then add lasagna noodles. Follow with a generous layer of shredded chicken, smoked turkey slices, and more sauce. Sprinkle plant-based cheese evenly between layers to ensure every bite is creamy and flavorful. Repeat until ingredients are used, finishing with a layer of sauce and grated plant-based parmesan cheese on top.
  4. Bake Until Golden and Bubbling: Cover the dish with foil and bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for about 30 minutes. Remove the foil and bake another 10 to 15 minutes to achieve a beautifully golden, bubbly cheese topping. Let it rest for 10 minutes before serving to allow flavors to meld and the sauce to set firmly.

Notes

  • Cook chicken thoroughly to ensure moist and tender texture.
  • Use no-boil noodles to save time and better absorb flavors.
  • Allow lasagna to rest after baking for neat slices and enhanced flavors.
  • Season generously with salt and pepper at every step to boost taste.
  • Distribute sauce and cheese layers evenly for balanced creaminess in each bite.
