OMG!

We are having family over this weekend. Despite the Frenchy last name, when it comes to feeding a crowd I reach back to my own Italian roots and cook with tomato sauce (gravy). But not all family can eat the love apple, so I needed a recipe that was Italian based, but white in sauce.

DO I have a recipe for you. A recipe to die for. A dish that might be scant leftovers come party time.
White Lasagna with Chicken, but having a veggie in the fam, I left out the chick.
Other modifications:
Used two onions instead of one.
I had no garlic in the house so when I added the flour I added a good tsp of garlic powder.
Made my own ricotta and mozzarella cheese.
Left out the black pepper and parsley.
Mixed the spinach with the ricotta and added two eggs -- as usual when I make lasagna.

It is the white sauce that makes this dish, and barely resisted the urge to belly up to the stove and eat it all out of the pan with a ladle.

Who can not eat tomatoes? They should be banished from the family!
