--------  ------------  --------------------------------
 10      ounces        pkg frozen spinach
  1      pound         boneless skinless chicken breasts -- about 4 halves
    3/4  cup           skim milk
  2      teaspoons     cornstarch
  1 1/2  teaspoons     chicken bouillon granules
    1/4  teaspoon      caraway seed
    1/8  teaspoon      pepper
  2      ounces        nonfat processed Swiss cheese -- torn into pieces
         dash          tabasco sauce

    Cook spinach according to package directions; drain well.  Divide among
4 au gratin baking dishes.  Meanwhile, spray a COLD large skillet with
nonstick coating.  Add chicken.  Cook over medium heat for 8 to 10 min or
till tender and no longer pink, turning pieces occasionally.  Place chicken
atop spinach.  Keep warm.
    For sauce, combine milk, cornstarch, bouillion, caraway, and pepper.
Cook and stir till thickened and bubbly.  Add cheese and tabasco; stir till
melted.  Pour atop chicken and serve.

NOTES : 1.  With REGULAR Swiss cheese:  219 Kcal 5.8g fat (2.9g sat fat) 24%
CFF 694mg Na
2.  With LOW SODIUM Swiss cheese:  225 Kcal  6.2g fat (3.1g sat fat) 25% CFF
599mg Na
3.  The chicken bouillon granules are adding a significant amount of sodium.
Halving the amount to 3/4 tsp. will subtract 222mg Na PER SERVING!
(Combined with low-sodium cheese the sodium would be now total 377mg per
serving.)   Substitutuing low-sodium granules might be even more
significant.
4.  We prefer more spinach so I always use two 10-ounce packages of spinach.
That adds 17 Kcal and 52mg Na per serving.
