Buffalo Chicken Lasagna

Tonight's dinner I have made once before, but the hubs wasn't home when I made it. I loved it so much I had to make it for him too, even though I was worried whether this would be too "creative" for him. He's not very adventurous when it comes to food (yet he eats critters like squirrels, blech...), but he ended up eating three helpings of this lasagna! I found this recipe on a WW board, but don't let that scare you, this dish is great and packed full of flavor - you can obviously choose to use full-fat or lightened ingredients. Since an entire cup of buffalo wing sauce is being used, this might not be too kid friendly in your house - it isn't in mine. The pepperjack cheese is the key ingredient in this lasagna...it gives such a creamy, spicy kick to each bite. In fact, I think next time I may add extra pepperjack to one (or more) of the layers just to make it that much better. Just something to keep in mind :)
