I purchased 2 packages of Smart Chicken to try out as it was buy one, get 1 free. Wow...really great ground white meat chicken! The taste is so fresh due to their method of air chilling and minimizing the use of water in their processing. This recipe is on the back of the package. It makes the most marvelous and healthy lasagna! I am going back to get 2 more packages just to make this sauce and freeze! The only changes I made were: grated the carrots, added 1/2 tsp. Accent plus freshly ground black pepper to taste.I also used 1 box of frozen creamed spinach as that was what I had on hand. This doubles well.
