2-4 Chicken breasts-cubed (depending on how much you want)
2 packs Italian dressing mix (powder)
1 8 oz. package cream cheese (at room temperature)
1 cup sour cream
8-10 cooked lasagna noodles
1 medium jar spaghetti sauce
mozzarella cheese (grated for the top layer)
2 tbsp sugar
Mix one pack of italian dressing using the recipe on the back of the package. Marinate the chicken (in the same pan you'll bake it in) in the italian dressing ( overnight if possible). Bake the chicken approximately 20-25 minutes at 350 degrees. let cool.
Pour spagheti sauce in sauce pan. Mix in sugar. Heat on low for 1 hour, stirring every 10 minutes to prevent sticking. ( You don't have to do this step if you are on a time crunch but it makes the sauce taste better.)
Cook noodles according to package directions.
Whip sour cream, cheese and other pack of italian dressing (left as powder) together until fluffy. Fold cubed chicken into sour cream mixture. In a 9x13 pan put one layer of noodles on the bottom then layer the chicken in the white sauce. Put one more layer of noodles. Pour sauce over noodles. Top with the desired amount of cheese. Bake at 375 degreese for 25 minutes covered, 5 minutes uncovered . Let stand for 10 minutes before serving. Serve with French bread.
( If you want to add anothe layer of noodles and filling, then add another 1/2 c. sour cream and 4 oz cream cheese and another chicken breast to the recipe.)
This is the Lasagna that we had for the Progressive dinner, Thanks Mieka Barlow

Where do you find Italian dressing mix? Is it by the salad dressings or with the spaghetti, gravy, etc mixes?
I usually find it in the salad dressing area. It is by the ranch dressing packets. I am excited to try this recipe!
Jen is right, it is in the same isle as the salad dressings. you can buy individual packages or a box that has 4 packets (which is a little more economical).
Also, make sure you just make one up into a dressing and the other one will stay as the powder to mix with the sour cream mixture. Let me know how they turn out!
Also, for anyone interested, I will often make two pans and freeze the other.
I tried this tonight & it is SO YUMMY & fairly easy. I cooked the chicken this morning & saved it in the fridge for tonight. We have plenty of left-overs, too!! Thanks for the recipe, Mieka!!
