Creamy Chicken Pesto Lasagna

I saw a picture of a pesto lasagna and I wanted to make it.  My husband LOVES creamy chicken pesto as a pizza, on noodles or I'm sure would use it as a dip of some sort.  For this reason I changed the recipe to accommodate my family.  I turned a pesto lasagna I saw into creamy chicken pesto lasagna.

I needed to find a really good creamy pesto recipe because my husband has become an expert on the creamy pesto (I know this from a previous attempt where I failed, but he was kind about it).  I found a recipe from Campbell's soup.  I was hesitant at first but went with it.

He loved it!  He kept telling me how good the lasagna was and that he could eat it, "Everyday, and twice on Saturdays."  I finally confessed to him how I made it after dinner was over.  He was majorly impressed. So, here you go, the recipe that won over my creamy pesto expert husband.

1 can cream of chicken soup
1/2 c pesto from a jar
1/2 c milk

12 lasagna noodles
2-3 shredded chicken breasts
Parmesan cheese
Mozzarella cheese would be good in the layers too!

I cooked the noodles and chicken before assembling.  Layered with noodles, sauce, chicken, and sprinkled parmesan cheese.  On top put sauce and parmesan cheese.

Cooked at 350 for 25 min or until pesto is bubbling and the cheese has slightly browned.
