You'll go down the street, asking "who cares about meat?" to all the fine folks you see… the postman, the cheese monger, the neighborhood dog. They'll wonder what's wrong with you, but you won't care: you've had the greatest vegetarian lasagna skillet ever assembled. All's right with the world.

Meat lovers! If using protein, cook before making lasagna skillet. If using whole chicken breasts, pat chicken dry and, on a separate cutting board, cut into 1" dice. Season with 1/4 tsp. salt. If using diced chicken breasts, pat dry and season with 1/4 tsp. salt. If using chicken, place a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add 2 tsp. olive oil. Add diced chicken to hot pan and stir occasionally until chicken browns and reaches a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees, 5-7 minutes. If using ground turkey, follow same instructions and add turkey and 1/4 tsp. salt to hot pan. Cook, breaking up with a spoon, until no pink remains, 7-9 minutes. Add protein with marinara sauce and noodles in Step 4.
