Ingredients 

1 (12 ounce) container cottage cheese
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded Mozzarella cheese
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 teaspoon dried basil

Instructions 

Preheat the oven to 400°F.

Stir together cottage cheese, egg, 1/2 cup of the mozzarella cheese, 2 tablespoons of the Parmesan cheese, and basil in a medium bowl. Set aside.

To assemble lasagna, spread 1/2 cup of pasta sauce in an ungreased 8x8x2-inch baking dish. Top with 2 noodles. Sprinkle with 1/2 cup of chicken. Spread with 1/2 cup cottage cheese mixture and 1/2 cup pasta sauce. Repeat 3 more times. Sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese and 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese.
