Chicken Florentine Casserole

This was a hit at our house from the 2 year old on up. I followed the recipe as given,using reduced fat ingredients whenever possible and it was delicious! Although next time I will cut the chicken into bite size pieces and only use 1 cup of cheese. Thanks for the great recipe!
