This is a great twist on clas­sic lasagna…a bit of a casse­role ver­sion of chick­en fet­tuc­cine in a way…so what’s not to love!

Before cre­at­ing a gluten free cream of cel­ery soup to use in this recipe, I had always used Healthy Request Cream of Cel­ery or Mush­room soup, but they aren’t gluten free. I know there are some of you that might shud­der at the thought of using a canned soup, but actu­al­ly the nutri­tion­al num­bers were quite accept­able and the end result was great.

You can get the home­made gluten free Cream of Cel­ery soup recipe right here, or forge ahead with the canned soup…it’s up to you.

I added in the notes but did­n’t include in the recipe ingre­di­ents that a bit of dry sher­ry added to the soup is real­ly nice…you should try it!

Have fun and as always, make it your own!
