     When I made this chicken dish, for my low-sodium diet I omitted the bacon and basted the chicken breast with fat-free, low-sodium poppyseed salad dressing, used no-salt-added diced tomatoes, and no added salt. Cooked it on 60% power in my microwave, and served on brown rice. Delicious and healthy! - 12/22/08

     To keep the chicken moist, I marinated it in fat free italian dressing and omitted the bacon. Very good. - 12/1/08

     I actually used a can of diced tomatoes that had onions and green peppers and a can of diced tomatoes with garlic and olive oil already mixed together. I did not add any garlic powder or onion powder. I thought it made the chicken taste great. I would make this again. - 5/12/09

     One of my husband's favorite! Super easy. I use canned spinach and no bacon. We add diced italian tomatos and mushrooms. SO good! The spinich comes out not bitter at all. - 11/15/09

     I keep a jar of Hormel real bacon bits just to use when I want the flavor of the bacon but not the calories. You can find it in the grocery store in the aisle with the salad dressings. - 5/9/10

     Very good - truly tasty! - The whole kitchen smelled wonderful. I would add more spinach & I would par-cook the bacon first. Will make again. - 12/2/08

    Got this from the ingredients table...:-) - 9/17/08

     I'd make this again, but I would add some thick slices of red onion and maybe double the spinach and tomatoes. It was easy to make so I will also probably tweak it was some spices, e.g., basil, until I perfect it to my taste. - 5/10/10

     this was a great recipe and very easy...my husband and kids all enjoyed it...i used long grain and wild rice and realized that I took chicken thighs out of the freezer instead of breasts, but it worked fine...very yummy! - 12/2/08
  • TPASAILOR
     I seasoned the chicken (salt, pepper, low sodium soy sauce) which prevented it from being bland, and I used the entire package of frozen spinach + water chesnuts and Great Northern Beans. SO TASTY, but next time I'll cook the chicken on the stove a little before baking the dish, to reduce bake time. - 10/24/08
  • BOOFSMOM
     I made this with canned chicken, so it was sooooo easy and delicious! The canned chicken made it even lower in calories and fat as well. Thank you! - 10/8/08

  • BEATLETOT
     It was quick and easy to make, which was good, but it wasn't anything special. - 1/10/09
  • ELLENORR
     I use a brown/wild rice combo with this recipe--excellent! - 9/17/08
  • DEEDEEX
     My comment is "how long do you cook the chicken?" Please suggest an amount of time. Till tender doesn't give me a clue. Thanks - 5/12/10
  • EMMALOU55
     How many minutes did you leave it in the oven? I would rather not have to open the foil to check if the chicken in done/tender. - 5/11/10
  • VGINNY
     This sounds absolutely great!! I will definitely make it! - 12/1/08
  • SWEETONE111
     It was quite easy to make as promised. Next time I make it I'll try to spice the chicken a little more as it was a little bland, but very moist. I put it on some whole wheat couscous. - 9/20/08

     Iskipped the bacon, and added a generous sprinkle of feta during the last 5 minutes of cooking. Pretty good, we'd make it again. - 9/17/08
  • JACKSMIMI2
     This was excellent and will probably become a staple for me... I sprinkled a little parmesan cheese on the chicken and had mashed cauliflower instead of the rice. I would also serve this to company - the colors were beautiful.. compliments to the chef! - 5/23/10
  • LUV2BEAD1
