adapted from Allrecipes.com

Filling:
8 oz. chicken breast (about 2), cooked
pkg of frozen spinach
1 oz. sundried tomatoes
16 oz. ricotta/cottage cheese
3 oz. mozarella, shredded
1/2 tsp black pepper
1 tsp salt
12 lasagna noodles

16 oz white pasta sauce
16 oz tomato based pasta sauce
3 oz parmesan, grated

Once the chicken is cooked, cool to 45 degrees. Dice into 1/2" pieces and place in a large bowl. Add filling stuff and mix.
Arrange pasta sheets on cutting board and place 2 or 3 rounded Tbs of filling down center and roll up. Place into baking dish. Mix sauces and pour over top. Sprinkle with cheese.

Cover and bake at 350 for 20 min.
Remove foil, cook 20 more min. or until temp reaches 165 degrees.
Garnish with tomatoe and basil.

Serves 6.

I had no red sauce so I subbed 2 cans of tomato sauce and a jar of diced tomatoes and added Italian seasoning. :) I also just made this as a lasagna with lasagna noodles.  But it tasted great!
