Cook noodles according to directions. While they are cooking, shred the mozzarella cheese. Then mix together the cottage and ricotta cheese – add salt and pepper.
In a 13×9 pan, add a bit (1/3) of the pasta sauce and the first layer of noodles. Then layer 1/2 the chicken, 1/2 the spinach, and 1/2 the cheese mix. Add more sauce (1/3) and layer the remaining chicken, spinach, and cheese mix.
