1/4  Cup button mushrooms, sliced

2 Cups prepared pasta sauce
1/2 Cup chicken broth
Salt and pepper to taste
12 Ounces lasagna noodles, cooked

Cooking instructions;
In a hot skillet or sauté pan,, add the olive oil, garlic, mushrooms and shrimp. Cook for about 4 minutes at medium high heat. Pour the pasta sauce into the pan, bringing it to a slow simmer. Add the chopped basil, spinach, tomatoes, and the chicken broth, cooking for about 3 more minutes. Now season with salt and pepper to taste.
