Cake and Bread

Prep time: 20 minutes
Bake time: 35-50 minutes
Serves:8

Makeover techniques:
Omitted butter in sauce. Used skim milk instead of whole. Replaced regular cheddar with reduced-fat and used less. Used less Parmesan cheese.

In a medium saucepan, combine sauce mix with 1/2 milk. Stir until smooth. Add remaining milk. Stir and bring to a boil. Reduce heat; stir 1 minute. Remove from heat and set aside.

Coat a large skillet with cooking spray. Stir onions and mushroom over medium-high heat, until onions are translucent. Set aside.

Preheat oven to 350 F. Coat a 13 by 9-inch baking pan with cooking spray. Spread 1/2 cup of sauce in pan.
Layer: 4 lasagna noodles, chicken, salt, pepper, mushrooms, remaining sauce, asparagus, 2 cup cheese and remaining noodles. Top with remaining cheese, basil and oregano. Bake uncovered 35-40 minutes. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.
