  • Total Time: 45 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Chicken and Vegetables

  • 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
  • 2 cups fresh spinach (or 1 cup frozen, drained)

Dairy and Cheese

  • 1 cup cream cheese, softened
  • ½ cup sour cream
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella
  • ½ cup grated parmesan

Seasonings

  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • Salt & pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure the bake cooks evenly.
  2. Prepare Creamy Mixture: In a mixing bowl, blend the softened cream cheese, sour cream, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until smooth and well combined, forming the creamy base of the casserole.
  3. Add Chicken and Spinach: Fold in the shredded cooked chicken and fresh (or drained frozen) spinach into the creamy mixture, ensuring everything is evenly incorporated.
  4. Assemble the Bake: Transfer the mixture into a greased baking dish, spreading it out evenly. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella and grated parmesan evenly over the top to create a golden cheesy crust.
  5. Bake: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25 to 30 minutes until the casserole is bubbly and the cheese on top is melted and golden brown.
  6. Serve: Remove from oven, let cool slightly, then serve warm as a delicious main dish.

Notes

  • Rotisserie chicken works great as a quick protein option.
  • Add sliced mushrooms for extra flavor and texture.
