-Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. 
-Put the chicken stock and cream cheese in a bowl and microwave a minute or two to melt the cream cheese. 
-Whisk in the Italian dressing mix, garlic powder, and salt/pepper into the cream cheese mixture until smooth. 
-Stir in the tomatoes, artichokes, mushrooms, onions, and spinach. 
-Place the chicken breasts into a casserole pan.
