Ingredients
- 2 (10-ounce) packages frozen chopped spinach
- 6 chicken breast halves (about 4 pounds), cooked, boned, and shredded
- 2 (10 3/4-ounce) cans condensed cream of mushroom soup
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 1 cup sour cream
- 2 cup grated sharp Cheddar
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon curry powder
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1/2 cup dry white wine
- 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan
- 1/2 cup soft bread crumbs
- 2 tablespoons butter
Directions
Remove the outer wrappers from the box of spinach. Open 1 end of each box. Microwave on full power for 2 minutes, until thawed. Drain the spinach and put into a large bowl. Add the shredded chicken.
In a medium bowl, combine the soup, mayonnaise, sour cream, Cheddar, lemon juice, curry powder, salt and pepper, to taste, and wine. Whisk together to make a sauce. Pour the sauce over the spinach and chicken. Mix well with a spatula.
Place the mixture into an 11 by 7-inch casserole dish or 2 (9-inch) square disposable aluminum foil pans that have been sprayed with vegetable oil cooking spray. Pat down evenly and smooth with a spatula. Combine the Parmesan and bread crumbs and sprinkle over the top. Dot with the butter.
Wrap the uncooked casserole securely with plastic wrap, then with aluminum foil. Place each pan into a plastic freezer bag and seal. Place into freezer.
Allow casserole to thaw 24 hours in refrigerator. When ready to bake, remove the plastic wrap and foil. Bake uncovered at 350 degrees F for about 30 minutes until bubbly.

My family absolutely loves this recipe. If using the full recipe this dish is HUGE. I have a family of four and cutting this recipe in half still makes plenty with some leftover. The only thing I really change is to use panko bread crumbs mixed with the cheese on top and omit the butter on top. I find that this gives a crunchier topping and cuts a tiny bit of fat in this already very rich dish. Served over rice this makes an awesome meal.

Paula is right. You can't have too much cheese in this recipe. I made some adjustments by adding mushrooms, garlic salt and egg noodles with 2 1/2 cup of cheese. Also I substitute wheat germ for bread crumbs. Delish!!

I love this reciepe! I used fresh spinach instead of frozen and not quite as much as the reciepe calls for. It is great for a cold winter day, warm and comforting. If you are not a fan of curry try substituting it with garlic powder. Beware though it is very rich :
