Instructions
Make the sauce first:
In a medium saucepan melt the butter over medium heat. Add garlic and cook for about 1 minute
Add the cream cheese and whisk until smooth. Whisk in the half & half or milk.
Season with salt and pepper and oregano, bring to a simmer (don’t boil!)and whisk frequently until the sauce thickens about 15 minutes.
Add the parmesan and whisk until melted and blended.
Set aside
Next steps
Cook the lasagna noodles according to package directions.
Drain and rinse the noodles with cold water and dry them a little on a paper towel to make them easier to work with
While the noodles cook, combine the chicken, spinach, and seasonings in a large bowl.
To assemble
Spread about half a cup of the alfredo sauce in your baking dish.
Onto each noodle, spread filling, sauce and some mozzarella, and roll up.
Place each one seam side down into your baking dish.
Top with remaining alfredo sauce, and mozzarella.
Bake at 350 degrees F, for around 30 minutes – until heated through and cheese is bubbling.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly.
Devour.
