    Heat oven to 375°F. Spray 13x9-inch (3-quart) glass baking dish with cooking spray. In small microwavable bowl, microwave 2 tablespoons of the butter uncovered on High 20 to 40 seconds or until melted. Add bread crumbs to bowl, and stir until mixed well; set aside.

    In 4-cup glass measuring cup, mix broth, milk, mustard, thyme and pepper; set aside. In 4-quart saucepan, melt remaining 1/3 cup butter over medium heat. With whisk, stir in flour until smooth. Cook and stir 1 to 2 minutes or until mixture is smooth and bubbly. Gradually stir broth mixture into saucepan. Increase heat to medium-high; heat to boiling, stirring constantly. Boil and stir 1 minute; reduce heat to medium. Stir in cream cheese and Swiss cheese. Cook, beating mixture with whisk, until cheeses are melted and mixture is smooth. Remove from heat.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Oven-ready lasagna noodles are found in the pasta aisle of the grocery store. They’re great to use, as they don’t require boiling before assembling the lasagna.
  • tip 2
    Leftover cooked chicken or deli rotisserie chicken may be used in this recipe.
