This Creamy Chicken, Spinach & Mushroom Casserole makes for the perfect weeknight meal. Prepare ahead of time and reheat for those busy weeknights too. I have to be honest, I don't make a lot of casserole-type dishes often. Perhaps it's because when I think of casseroles you generally utilize leftovers, and I'm not a huge leftover fan. Wash chicken and pat dry with paper towels.
