Spicy Spinach Chicken Casserole Bowl

Plan Z Phase: This is a Z3.5 (ZReboot 3.5) recipe.
This dish comes together super-fast. As you transition to Z3.5 you can add a few noodles, but honestly, when I make it again I feel the noodles don’t add that much. It will be really tasty without them. You choose. You can also double this recipe and serve it on a buffet or at a potluck.
Serves: 4
Ingredients:
- 8 chicken tenders cut into bite sized (1”) pieces
- 1 cup of shredded pepper jack cheese
- 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese
- 10 oz of frozen, chopped spinach, thawed and drained (if necessary)
- 1 cup of cooked noodles (I used macaroni)
- ¼ cup of grated parmesan cheese
- 1/2-3/4 cup of cream. You can use ½ cup if not using noodles. If you add noodles you’ll need more liquid.
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
Spray a saute pan with olive oil spray. Put in your chicken chunks and cook on medium high until they get lightly browned and cooked through. Turn off and set aside.
Spray a 9” square oven-proof pan with your olive oil spray. Put in the spinach, pepper jack, cheddar, noodles and chicken along with the cream. Stir to mix it all up. Sprinkle on the parmesan and put it in your oven to cook 20-25 minutes until hot and bubbly. Let it cool down for 5 – 10 minutes before serving so you don’t burn your mouth.
Serve in a bowl or plate it.
Enjoy!
Cheers,

Creamy Tomato Basil Tortellini (EASY)
This is, hands down, my favorite new dish in 2024. Yes it’s a pasta dish but you can splurge once in awhile as long as you don’t eat too much of the pasta. The trick with this one is to get a lot of…
