WHITE CHICKEN LASAGNA SOUP RECIPES

Steps:

• In 6-quart slow cooker, place chicken, butter, onion, carrots, bell pepper, mushrooms, garlic, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper.
• Pour in chicken broth. Gently stir; cover and cook on High 4 to 5 hours.
• Remove chicken from slow cooker; cut into bite-size pieces. Return chicken to slow cooker.
• In medium bowl, beat half-and-half, cornstarch and 1 cup broth from slow cooker. Add half-and-half mixture, lasagna noodles, beans and spinach to slow cooker. Stir, making sure all noodles are covered in liquid.
• Cover and cook on High 15 to 20 minutes or until pasta is tender and soup is slightly thickened. Just before serving, add cheeses; stir until melted.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, add the mushrooms, thyme and salt, then stir. Cook until the liquid is released and the mushrooms are browned, 6 to 8 minutes.
• Add the Italian seasoning and garlic, stir and cook for 1 minute. Sprinkle with the flour, stirring until the flour has coated all the mushrooms. Stir in the broth and bring to a simmer; simmer, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens, about 10 minutes.
• Add the heavy cream and return to a simmer. Add the lasagna sheets and cook until al dente, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the spinach and cook just until the spinach wilts, about 1 minute.
• Turn the heat off and ladle into bowls. Garnish with a few dollops of ricotta cheese and a few drizzles of pesto.
