Artichoke Chicken Casserole



8 oz. chicken breasts
1/4 cup mushrooms, sliced
1/4 cup green onion tops, chopped
2 tablespoons butter
1/8 teaspoon garlic salt
8 1/2 ounces artichoke hearts (drained)
1/4 cup mayonnaise 1/4 cup sour cream
1/2 cup Italian cheese blend, shredded

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Cook chicken (any way you choose) cool and shred, should make about 2 cups.  Saute mushrooms and green onions in butter.  Sprinkle with garlic salt.  In a large bowl combine all ingredients.  Place mixture into a 2 quart casserole.  Bake for 30 minutes.

Comments:  This recipe is great in carbs but a bit high in protein so you'll want to really watch what you eat the rest of the day.  The calories aren't too bad, under 400.  But the taste is delicious and served as a lettuce wrap it is unbelievable!  1/6th of the dish will give you from 2-4 wraps depending on how full you fill them.  And believe me, you'll be full when finished. 


This dish ended up costing me about $7.00, counting the Romaine leaves, giving it a cost of about $1.25 each.  This dish will also make a great cracker spread but remember that the crackers will add carbs plus.
