Spinach & Mushroom Smother Chicken


I had my heart set on making the Spinach & Mushroom Smother Chicken recipe that I found on Pinterest.  When I brought up the recipe I realized I didn't have some of the ingredients. Unfortunately this happens fairly regularly so I just "wing it" with what I have.
So listed below is my version of Spinach & Mushroom Smothered Chicken.  Hope you like it!



Ingredients
  • 1 large bag of spinach leaves
  • 1 1/4 C Heavy Cream
  • 1/4 C shredded Parmesan cheese
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 Sm/Med Onion - Diced
  • 2 T Butter
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 8 ounce package of mushrooms, sliced or 2 cans sliced mushrooms
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4-5 boneless chicken breasts or whole baked chicken – Diced into small pieces
  • 1 – 1 ½ Cups mozzarella cheese
Preheat oven to 375
In a large skillet melt butter – add onion, garlic and mushrooms and sauté
Add spinach leaves to the onion mix and allow spinach to cook down
Remove from heat and stir in heavy cream and Parmesan cheese.

Place cooked/diced chicken in baking dish and pour spinach mixture over the top.
Bake for 20-25 minutes uncovered until bubbling slightly
Top with mozzarella cheese and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes until cheese is melted and then broil for 3-4 minutes until cheese begins to brown.

Blueberry Cobbler

We have been having fun making desserts at my house in the past few weeks.  My daughter Amber made PW Apple Dumplings. They are always amazingly yummy! Then my Mother in law, Martha and I wanted to try something similar with blueberries.  Martha found a couple recipes on line that were close but not quite right so we combined them and it turned out delicious.


 Blueberry Cobbler



Blueberry Mixture:
1 cup Sugar
½ Cup Cornstarch
4 cups Blueberries – Frozen
½ cup Mountain Dew

Thaw blueberries in the microwave until warm and juicy.  Add sugar, cornstarch and Mountain Dew. 
Stir to combine and place into 9X13 baking dish coated with cooking spray.

Topping:
2 cans crescent rolls
1 cup butter - melted
1 cup sugar
½ cup Mountain Dew

Place crescent rolls over blueberry mixture side by side.  Simply push and scrunch them together to fit, don’t overlap.  Mix butter and sugar together and pour over the crescent dough then pour Mountain Dew over the top.

Bake at 350 degrees for about 40-45 minutes.
