Chicken Alfredo Roll Ups


Ingredients -
8 Lasagna noodles
2 1/2 cups alfredo sauce
2 cups cooked shredded chicken
Italian seasoning
3 cups of shredded Italian cheese (Mozzarella, Parmesan, ect. - your choice) I use Mozzarella
 
Spray an 8x8 pan with non-stick cooking spray and pour about 1/2 cup of alfredo sauce on the bottom of the pan. Cook the chicken in a pan with some Italian seasoning and shred the chicken once it's cooked. Boil water in a large pan, cook lasagna noodles until al dente. Darin and rinse the noodles with cold water to prevent them sticking together. (Very Important!!) Then, lay out each noodle individually and blot dry with a paper towel.
 
Spread about 2 tbs. of alfredo sauce over each noodle. (if there is too much sauce you will have a huge mess!) Sprinkle Italian seasoning on top of sauce. Take some shredded chicken and spread it out evenly over each noodle. Add cheese. To roll up, start at one end and roll the noodle over the toppings. You will need to lift the noodle a little to prevent squishing out the inside ingredients while rolling.
 
Place the roll-ups in the pan, one by one, seam-side down so they don't come undone. Once they are all in the pan, pour remaining alfredo sauce over the top. Sprinkle with Italian seasoning and top with remaining cheese. Bake at 350 degrees for about 30 minutes or until the cheese is completely melted on top.
 
(An alternative to this recipe, if you're in a hurry and don't feel like rolling each noodle...you can use the same theory and layer it like a lasagna instead. Tastes the same and saves time!)

  1. Could you use oven ready lasagna noodles for this and make it like a lasagna?
