Liz's Chicken Lasagna

To make white sauce: melt 1/4 cup butter in a medium saucepan. When melted, add 1/2 cup flour, mix and cook a little until browned a bit. Add 2 cups milk, 2 cups water, 1 teaspoon salt, and 2 teaspoons chicken boullion. Cook and stir over medium heat until thickened. Add 1 1/2 cups to 2 cups cubed chicken (I used 2 large cans of chicken meat, drained), stir and set aside.

Make cheese mixture: mix together 2 cups shredded mozarella cheese, 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, 1 cup cottage cheese, 1/2 teaspoon oregano, 1 teaspoon basil, 1/8 cup dried onion (can use 1/2 fresh onion, sauteed), 1/8 teaspoon pepper, and 1/2 package spinach, thawed.

In a 9X13 pan, layer 1/2 of the chicken white sauce, then dry uncooked lasagna noodles,
then half the cheese spinach mixture and repeat layers. Top with more Parmesan cheese. Bake uncovered 1 hour at 350 degrees. (I baked mine covered for 45 minutes and then uncovered it for last 15 minutes. Definately was not dry!)
