1 (8 ounce) box gluten free pasta (or half bag of egg noodles if not worrying about gluten)

1/2 teaspoon salt
1 lbs fresh spinach, coarsely chopped or (10 ounce) bag frozen spinach, thawed and drained

1
Preheat oven to 350. Cook pasta in boiling salted water until barely tender.

Heat oil in large skillet and saute onion until limp, 3 to 5 minutes. Add spinach. If using fresh spinach, cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, for 5 to 10 minutes until cooked down. Season with salt.
3
Drain pasta and mix with salt, pepper, cottage cheese and grated cheese.
4
In a greased, shallow baking dish (I use a glass 13x9 pan), layer half the pasta mixture, half the spinach, the remaining pasta, and top with the remaining spinach.
5
Combine topping ingredients and sprinkle on top. Bake 20 minutes until top is golden.
