Hi Everyone!

This is a hit, one you and your entire family will enjoy! Who has to know its low fat and healthy, shhhhh its our little secret....

Recipe Ingredients:

1/2 cup Light Mayonnaise

1/2 cup fat-free sour cream

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

pinch of black pepper

1/3 cup grated parmesan cheese

1/4 cup reduced fat shredded mozzarella

2 cups diced cooked chicken breast

10 0z. Frozen spinach, thawed and drained well

Non-Stick Cooking Spray-Original

Recipe Steps:

Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray a 9” x 9” baking dish with Non-Stick Cooking Spray.

Combine Light Mayonnaise Dressing, sour cream, garlic powder, pepper, and Parmesan cheese and shredded mozzarella in a medium bowl.

In another bowl, toss 1/3 of the sauce with the chicken and spinach and spread in the casserole dish. Pour the rest of the sauce mixture over the chicken and spinach.

Bake, uncovered, 35-40 minutes or until top is golden brown.

CG, I was thinking of this, the texture is moist/soft I would be afraid it would fall or mush out of the tins. However, that would of been a great idea for this recipe if otherwise. I will have to find some muffin tin recipes and try them out.

Hope that helped :)

What about using those silicone cupcake cups? This may help hold it in versus the regular paper cups.

Beth,

You are absolutely right! It does taste just like spinach artichoke dip... I love that it is nice and moist, makes it super band friendly especially for those who have a hard time with meat. I am going to use the same concept of this recipe and make it with eggplant?? why not!!! LOL

Thanks Beth, glad you enjoyed!!!

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
