Instructions to make Chicken Spinach Mushroom Bake:

I have to be honest, I don't make a lot of casserole-type dishes often. Rinse and drain spinach; pat dry. In a bowl, add softened cream cheese; whisk in oil and chicken stock/broth; pour over mixture. Cover with foil, but do not seal or crimp sides. In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat; saute mushrooms and green onions until tender.
