I love florentines, but they are usually so high fat that I don't make. This has less than HALF THE FAT of most (see "Chicken Florentine Casserole" on this site)and more fiber. I will be making this one often. I made exactly as written, and family enjoyed the flavor and didn't even suspect there was cottage cheese (I used lowfat) in it. Thank you Chris523, for sharing this lowfat, high protein, and some-healthy-fiber, terrific recipe!

Good dish and i love the ingredients! My 2 sons loved it as well. Changed a few things tho - used no butter, less EVOO, egg instead of cornstarch, and regular brown rice. Topped part with fresh sliced tomatoes, 1/2 with feta cheese, and other 1/2 with parmesan cheese and even added parmesan cheese to the mixture. Also added more seasoning to the mix as bland rice can take away the flavor a bit. I will definitely be making this again! And so easy!! Yummmmm!

I thought this was absolutely delicious! I couldn't imagine what was going to happen with the cottage cheese, but it sure worked for me. The spices were just right in my opinion. It is very filling, I was surprised. And I love the brown rice rather than white. Terrific recipe!

I substituted 3 cups chicken broth with no MSG for the water and boulion. I also added 2 cups shredded swiss cheese and one can of artichoke hearts finely chopped. I used long grain spanish rice instead of brown. I served this to a large crowd, and there were no leftovers.

I thought this was very tasty and delivered on flavor quite well. I subed 1 egg for cornstarch and used regular instead of instant brown rice. I will try the dump-it-all-in-the-dish method as others the next time. That would make the recipe even more attrative!

Made a lot of the changes I read about in reviews and this was amazing! I used an egg instead of the cornstarch mixture, used leftover chicken, then added seasonings, plain brown rice, no chicken broth. Topped with sliced tomatoes and feta cheese. It was so good and healthy too!

I too skipped the cornstarch, but this dish was simple and tasty. A good, warm meal for a weeknight.

Pretty good recipe. Although it wasn't a hit with the kids. They didn't like the spinach. I couldn't see the point in cooking the whole chicken breasts, and then cubing them, so I just cubed the chicken before cooking. I only had to use a teaspoon of oil in the pan. Also didn't bother with the margarine on top. The dish didn't seem to be lacking anything, so I don't don't see what the margarine would do. I also think it was a bit to much work to do for a casserole. I would have liked to see a recipe where I didn't have to cook the rice first.

Like other reviews, I added tomato slices and feta cheese to the top for the last 15 minutes of baking and also used regular brown rice, instead of instant. Very good and healthy!

I pack bento-style lunches for myself, as I'm on a quest for better healthy and fewer pounds, and this recipe was great. I'm always looking for good dishes to make on the weekends for the upcoming lunches. I used non-instant brown rice, just cooked two cups' worth. I also cut out the Parmesan cheese and the margarine, and I used low-fat cottage cheese. It tasted great, although I think next time I will add some seasoned salt for a little extra kick. It keeps well and is great re-heated...we'll see how the portions that I froze turn out! Thanks for a great recipe.

I'll start by saying Im a tough reviewer. 5 stars to me means its out of this world and worthy of all the time it took to prep. That being said, this dish was not bad, just nothing to write home about. I added a can of diced tomatoes per other reviewers to give it some more flavor and color, but pretty much stayed on recipe for the rest of it. Turned out pretty bland. Nice that its pretty nutritious (used fat free cottage cheese) but it just wasnt that good.
