Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). (5 minutes)

02

Step

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook elbow macaroni in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. (15 minutes)

03

Step

While the macaroni is cooking, combine chicken, Swiss and mozzarella cheeses, mayonnaise, basil, and onion in a bowl. Add spinach, condensed soup, garlic powder, thyme, and pepper; mix to combine. (8 minutes)

04

Step

Drain macaroni. Gently stir into the chicken mixture. Transfer to an ungreased 9x13-inch baking dish. (5 minutes)

05

Step

Toss bread crumbs with melted butter; sprinkle over the casserole. (2 minutes)

06

Step

Bake, uncovered, in the preheated oven until bubbly and golden brown, 40 to 45 minutes. (45 minutes)

For an even richer flavor, consider using a blend of Gruyere and Parmesan cheese instead of Swiss and mozzarella.
Freshly grated nutmeg adds a warm, aromatic note that complements the spinach and cream sauce beautifully.
To prevent the breadcrumbs from burning, tent the casserole with foil during the last 15 minutes of baking.
Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave until warmed through.

    I used rotisserie chicken to make it even easier and it was still amazing.
