Have you ever been at one of your favorite Italian restaurants and been stumped! DO you order the Chicken Parm or the Lasagna. You can’t decide because you want them both! And in no world are you ordering those 2 entrees, especially if you are living a WW lifestyle of spending our points wisely. NO, you will have to order one or the other and you will probably have to spend all your weeklies to do it!
…. OR will you?
This recipe is the perfect marriage of a cheesy layered lasagna and a saucy Chicken Parmigiano! It has all the deliciousness of a layered pasta without all the points and calories! You can even make the chicken and the sauce ahead of time since it is made in the slow cooker and when you got home, layer the Chicken Parmisagna and you are ready to eat a “better than restaurant” meal in 30 minutes!
