Great article-would like to publish in my free newsletter for seniors but was wondering if the information applies to Washington residents as well?

I'm surprised by the negative reviews! I was worried it might be bland,but I did not find it bland AT ALL! I did throw in some grated pecorino-romano and that made it even better, I think. If the sauce is too runny, whisk it more-- it does take more than a minute to get it to thicken. I never review recipes, but I wanted to add my input on this one.
Average is kind. This recipe was bland. easy, yes. Boring, yes. Tasteless, yes. I wouldn't make it again. Oh, and it's not a lasagna by any stretch of the imagination. Don't get anyone's expectations up...simply call it what it is--casserole.
Just made this for dinner and it was incredibly average. The chicken mixture had too much liquid so it was a pretty bland, runny mess. I agree with the poster that said it tastes more like chicken pot pie than anything. Probably wont be making it again.
This lasagna was so easy to make and absolutely delicious. Without cheese it is light yet satisfying at the same time.
So good and quick to throw together. Added a squeeze of lemon to the artichoke and chicken mixture and served with parmesan cheese.
This is an easy "comfort food" recipe. Not a traditional lasagna yet so fantastic. I would not add any salt. The marinated artichoke hearts are salty enough. I did add 3/4 cup whole wheat bread crumbs (packaged) as I did not have the time/bread to make "real" breadcrumbs. I will share with family, friends and make it for company. Delish!
This was quite good. Easy to make and a good non dairy lasagna. Reminds me a bit of a pot pie. Husband thought it was OK as he thought the artichokes made it too tangy. I personally love marinated artichokes so I enjoyed it.
