This was a bit too cheesy for my taste. I would recommend using less cheese next time.

I'm not a huge fan of spinach, but this dish was still really good. The chicken was cooked perfectly and the sauce was flavorful.

I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out great. The only thing I would change is to add more spinach next time.
