Southwest Chicken Lasagna

This is a recipe I've found online somewhere years ago and have been making ever since. You can use rotisserie chicken if you want an even faster meal. For our family, I half the recipe and use a loaf pan. I haven't posted this before because all the photos I've tried to take of it come out ugly. Lasagna is not easy to photograph, but especially this one because it is more liquidy than the regular type. But it tastes really good!Southwest Chicken Lasagna1 (10-oz.) pkg. lasagna noodles
