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....

10 0z. Frozen spinach, thawed and drained well

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.

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!!!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
