Ingredients
16 oz cottage cheese (4% preferred)
2 garlic cloves, peeled
½ tsp kosher salt
¼ tsp black pepper
¼ tsp onion powder
1 tsp avocado or olive oil
1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into bite-sized pieces
Kosher salt & pepper to taste

⅔ cup finely grated parmesan cheese
1 can (16 oz) artichoke hearts, drained & chopped
6 oz frozen chopped spinach, thawed & squeezed dry
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F.
Optional prep: Season chicken with salt and rest at room temp for 20 minutes (for juicy, flavorful chicken!).
Drain & prep artichokes and spinach—squeeze out all liquid. Chop artichokes finely.
Cook chicken: In a large pan with oil, cook chicken pieces for 2-3 mins per side. Set aside.
Blend cottage cheese mix: In a food processor, combine cottage cheese, garlic, salt, pepper, and onion powder until smooth.
Assemble casserole: In a 9×13″ baking dish, mix cooked chicken, spinach, artichokes, blended cottage cheese, and ⅔ of the mozzarella and parmesan. Spread evenly.
Bake covered for 20 minutes.
Uncover, top with remaining cheeses, and bake another 10 minutes. Broil briefly for a golden, bubbly top!
