  • 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.
  • Top off with the remaining sauce (1/3) and top with all the mozzarella cheese.
  • Cover with foil and bake at 350 for about 45 minutes - 1 hour.
  • Let cool for about 10 minutes before cutting and eating.
