Chicken Florentine Casserole

⁽²⁾

I loved this recipe. I made this for my mom after her surgery and she loved it. I only used 1 box of spinach instead of 2 and i used real bacon and not bacon bits, other than that it was great!

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

This recipe was a hit. I don't understand those who said this dish did not have enough flavor. They must have used old spices. I too used chicken broth instead of bullion. I also added a tsp of salt and some rosemary. Instead of Parmesan, I used Monteray Jack cheese. This will definitely be served again in our home.

This was a hit at our house from the 2 year old on up. I followed the recipe as given,using reduced fat ingredients whenever possible and it was delicious! Although next time I will cut the chicken into bite size pieces and only use 1 cup of cheese. Thanks for the great recipe!

To Complain or Not To Complain

by Mark R. Vogel

Unfortunately the answers to these questions return us to the subjectivity and capriciousness of the individual person's character. When the situation is not a no-brainer because it doesn't lie at one extreme or the other, we must then decide what we are...
