White Chicken Spinach Lasagna...

I love to have chicken on Sundays. Im not sure why but it just seems like it should be. This is a great dish and so good.

2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
2 can cream mushroom soup
1 1/2 cup milk
1 10 oz pk. frozen chopped spinach thawed and drained
1 egg
1 pint part skim ricotta cheese
12 lasagna noodles cooked and drained
2 cups cooked diced chicken
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese

Preheat oven to 350. Save 2/3 cups mozzarella cheese for top. Combine in a small bowl the 1 1/3 cup mozzarella cheese, milk and soup. Set aside. In another bowl combine spinach, egg and ricotta cheese and mix well. Add to soup mixture. Spread 1/3 of the mixture in a 9x13 baking dish. Spread chicken on top of the mixture. Then 4 of the noodles. Repeat layers ending with noodles. Top with the parmesan cheese and the 2/3 cup mozzarella cheese. Bake for 40 minutes or until bubbly. Let stand for 15 minutes and enjoy..
