Asian Chicken And Vegetables In Garlic White Sauce































28 And one of the scribes came up and heard them disputing with one another, and seeing that he answered them well, asked him, "Which commandment is the most important of all?"
29 Jesus answered, "The most important is, 'Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one.
30 And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.'

Knock Off J Alexander Spinach Artichoke Queso Dip Revisited































3 And you show that you are a letter from Christ delivered by us, written not with ink but with the Spirit of the living God, not on tablets of stone but on tablets of human hearts.
4 Such is the confidence that we have through Christ toward God.
5 Not that we are sufficient in ourselves to claim anything as coming from us, but our sufficiency is from God,
6 who has made us sufficient to be ministers of a new covenant, not of the letter but of the Spirit. For the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life. - 2 Corinthians 3:3-6




A reader suggested adding chicken stock, I didn't want to inhibit the thickness of this dish so I used chicken base seasoning. I also experimented with adding different cheeses and seasonings. In the old recipe I used Velveeta, but I wanted to try something else. I love the result, hope you do too!!!

Butter veggie mix
1 T chicken base seasoning
3 T butter, chopped
1 c chopped spinach, I used frozen
1 c chopped artichoke hearts, I used frozen
1 Shallot, diced 
Sauté the above in the butter.

Add these into butter veggie mix.
1 t roasted garlic
1/2 t toasted cumin
1/2 t onion powder
1/2 t dried cilantro 
1/2 t dried parsley 
1 chipotle in adobo, mashed
1 -1/2 c heavy Cream
1/4 c half and half
4 oz. Havarti cheese, chopped
2 oz. cream cheese, chopped
1-1/2 c sharp cheddar
Salt and pepper to taste
2 Small chopped seeded tomatoes
