Directions
Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly spray a 13-inch by 9-inch baking dish with vegetable cooking spray, and set aside.
Combine egg, ricotta, chicken, spinach, 1/2 cup mozzarella, 1/4 cup Parmesan, Italian seasoning, garlic powder and salt in a large bowl.
Spread 1 cup tomato sauce in bottom of baking dish. Place 3 noodles over sauce (noodles will not cover entire area; they expand during cooking). Top with 1/2 cup sauce. Spread 1 1/4 cups spinach-cheese mixture over the sauce. Repeat 2 more times with 3 noodles, 1/2 cup sauce, and 1 1/4 cups spinach-cheese mixture.
Top final spinach-cheese mixture layer with remaining noodles and sauce. Sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup mozzarella and 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese.
Cover with foil and bake for 35 minutes. Return to oven and bake, uncovered, for 10 minutes until cheese is melted and lightly browned. Let stand 10 minutes before serving. Cut into 8 pieces.
