🔪 How To Make Chicken Sausage Lasagna
Step One: In a frying pan, fry the eggs in butter, add salt and pepper, and stir. Move aside.
Step Two: In another frying pan, fry the chopped sausages, and add cream and broth. Stir until well mixed and cooked.
Step Three: Slice the zucchini lengthwise into thin slices.
Step Four: Layer the lasagna in a baking dish: start with sausages, then add zucchini slices, followed by the scrambled eggs, and sprinkle with cheese. Repeat the layers until all ingredients are used up.
Step Five: Cover the lasagna with foil and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 30 minutes. Then, remove the foil and bake for an additional 5 minutes to brown the top.
Step Six: Once baked, remove it from the oven, let it cool slightly, and serve your sausage lasagna. Enjoy!
