1. This is an awesome dish! I did make some adjustments, suggested by other reviewers on allrecipes.com. I left out the mushrooms (not a fan). I sauteed fresh spinach (two bags) with olive oil and minced garlic. I cooked some bacon in the same pan, then sauteed the chicken breasts in the same pan (after removing most of the bacon grease). I added chopped dried onion to the sauce and used skim milk instead of 1/2 & 1/2. I also put a little part-skim mozzarella in with the cream sauce, as well as on top. I baked (uncovered) at 375 for about 30 minutes. Delicious!

2. This was SOOOO good! We loved the garlic flavor and the mix of the spinach and mushrooms with the chicken- heavenly! I didn't have any parmesan cheese, so I ended up leaving it out of the sauce and it was still good without. I used fresh baby spinach like another reviewer said they did and it worked perfectly- just remember to put more in that you think you need because it will cook down a ton- I used half of a bag and felt like I could have used more! Overall, this was a really great, easy recipe! DH loved it and was talking about "when we have it again" before dinner was over! Thanks for sharing, Bev!

3. Very yummy! It was a little much for just the two of us, but it is definitely a wonderful recipe that we will enjoy again!

4. This is an outstanding chicken dish! We loved it and my family definitely wants me to make it again. We especially loved the addition of the mushrooms and the spinach.

5. This was very very good, and even my extremely picky 3-yr old ate it (cleaned his plate). Perhaps since I used canned spinach it didn't look recognizable as a vegetable. Even though i never used canned spinach before and i thought it looked gross I'm just glad my son ate it. I didn't have 1/2 & 1/2 so used a couple tbsp sour cream & about 1/4 C milk. Also instead of butter I used olive oil (sorta using "healthy fat" to make up for using sour cream, maybe). I didn't cook the chicken beforehand--just had some raw breasts that were premarinated in some italian spices, garlic & olive oil & layered them on top of the spinach & mushrooms in a greased pie-pan, then poured the sauce on top before baking. Also I skipped using bacon or mozzarella and it still tasted very flavorful & rich.

2. 2% instead of half and half, frozen spinach, no mushrooms, REAL bacon

3. I also found your recipe by filtering on spinach, mushrooms and chicken. This was very good! I did substitute fresh spinach rather than canned as I had fresh spinach I needed to use before it went bad. Also, I used a small can of evaporated milk instead of 1/2 and 1/2 and "real" bacon rather than bacon bits. Once I mixed the sauce, I thought it was a little thick so I added more milk to thin it a little bit. We thought this was so good and would definitely make it again. Thanks for a great recipe!

4. Really nice dish! I followed it almost as written using olive oil instead of butter. I used 2% evap. milk instead of the 1/2 & 1/2. I also used, a 1/2 pound (maybe more) fresh spinach, and 8oz. fresh mushrooms. I put the spinach in the dish, topped it w/ mushrooms, the cooked chicken (8 chicken tenders) and poured the sauce all at once on top, and topped w/ mozz. cheese. I baked beatifully. I think fresh ingredients make tastier results. I will be doing this one lots. Thanks :O)
