Chicken Bacon Mushroom Bake

Submitted by CindiJ

"This was a combination of two recipes I thought sounded good on their own but would be better with my own additions. The result was fabulous for a Low Carb Dieter with Type II Diabetes. Prep time did not include slicing mushrooms or shredding cheese as I cannot stand for any length of time. Use all the cheats you can and make any changes to your taste you wish to."
