INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

In a large skillet, cook bacon to crisp, remove to paper towels and reserve three tablespoons of bacon fat.

While the bacon is cooking, in a medium sauce pan, place cream cheese, Parmesan cheese, cheddar cheese, avocado mayonnaise, heavy cream, hot sauce, mustard, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder and paprika.

Cook over medium heat and stir with a wooden spoon until creamy.

Crumble bacon and add to the cream mixture.

Clean skillet and add two tablespoons of the bacon fat and saute onions over medium high heat for three minutes.

Add the remaining tablespoon of bacon fat and add the mushrooms and saute for five minutes.

Add the garlic and spinach and toss to coat the spinach and cook until wilted, about two minutes.

Add the cream mixture and cooked chicken and heat then pour into an 8X12 inch casserole dish.

Sprinkle on the two cups of mozzarella cheese and bake for 20 minutes.

Place under the broiler and brown, 1-2 minutes.

Let sit ten minutes to set up and serve 10 portions.

There will be a little liquid on the bottom which will eventually absorb into the mixture. We spooned a little over each portion.
