Chicken Gloria

Savory Sweet and Satisfying: Chicken Gloria

 My feelings towards mushrooms is slowly changing. That is thanks to yummy dishes like this one and this Bacon Mushroom Honey Dijon Chicken dish.

I still do not think I will ever like mushroom as a dish by itself, like stuffed mushrooms or sauteed mushrooms, but in a dish I am starting to not mind them so much.

I used my homemade cream of mushroom soup in this dish to help keep the sodium numbers down.

This dish can easily be doubled to feed a larger crowd.
