Day Two Hundred Fourteen: Easy-To-Please Chicken Casserole

Over the weekend, Martha had a whole section on Casseroles and Pot Pies at MarthaStewart.com.  Casseroles totally remind my husband of his childhood, so I decided to make Martha's Chicken and Spinach Casserole for him.  I rarely make casseroles, but when I do, he totally loves him.

Bless him.  He's pretty easy to please sometimes.

If you like casseroles, this is a good one.  It's made with fresh spinach and rotisserie chicken.  You can even use old bread for the topping if you have it.  To my tastes, the flavor was pretty boring, but nothing that a few dashes of red pepper can't solve.  My kids actually ate some of this, even though all the food groups were fraternizing like crazy.  I used the super-hero technique to get them to eat the spinach.  (Think: Popeye.)

This isn't the most photogenic dish in the world, but here you go:

Photogenic awards aside, this was a crowd-pleaser...if your crowd is beyond the age where food-groups-touching-on-the-plate is a major issue.  (When do they grow out of this?)
