This recipe makes quite a bit, so you can take half of the remaining chicken mixture and sauce and make soup. See "sour cream chicken enchilada soup" that I also submitted.

May family loves lasagna, so I tried to figure out a way to make it simple and low in calories and fat! You can substitute any ravioli or sauce you like! It takes only a few minutes to put together! You could also make this vegetarian without adding the ground beef, but my hubby likes meat! This recipe serves about 6 or 7 depending on how much you grab!

The same great taste of the Italian favorite, but this one is good for you!

Submitted by CONNIE563

Just to clarify for the questions below:
First, YES the cream cheese is figured into the totals...if you use FULL FAT cream cheese, the fat content will be considerably higher. But low fat cream cheese really takes the fat down.

Second, I haven't ever tried it with regular Italian dressing...let me know how it turns out!

Third, I HIGHLY recommend using the low setting for cooking...it allows the juices from the chicken to really seep into the dressing.
