Spinach Stuffed Chicken Breast




This is a spicier version of spinach stuffed chicken breasts. They are both tender and delicious, and they look good too.

Spinach Stuffed Chicken Breast

Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients:
  • 1 (10 ounce) package fresh spinach leaves
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup shredded pepperjack cheese
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - pounded to 1/2 inch thickness
  • 1 pinch ground black pepper
  • 8 slices bacon

Directions:
  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  2. Place spinach in a large glass bowl, and heat in the microwave for 3 minutes, stirring every minute or so, or until wilted. Stir in sour cream, pepperjack cheese, and garlic.
  3. Lay the chicken breasts out on a clean surface, and spoon some of the spinach mixture onto each one. Roll up chicken to enclose the spinach, then wrap each chicken breast with two slices of bacon. Secure with toothpicks, and arrange in a shallow baking dish.
  4. Bake uncovered for 35 minutes in the preheated oven, then increase heat to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C), or use the oven's broiler to cook for an additional 5 to 10 minutes to brown the bacon.

Love this recipe and it was so easy to make. These are delicious! I used only 1-1/2 cups of chips because that’s all I had, but they were still delicious! These Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars were everything I hoped they would be. Chewy, chocolate-y oat goodness in every single bite! I used half semi-sweet chocolate chips and half milk chocolate–craaazzy I know– and they were SOO good. If you don’t already have a fancy treat planned for your special someone this weekend (like raspberry bread pudding or Oreo Cheesecake Bites), these Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars will surely be a huge hit! Ingredients 1 cup butter at room temperature 1 cup firmly packed light brown sugar 1/2 cup granulated sugar 2 eggs 2 teaspoons vanilla extract 1/2 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon baking soda 1 teaspoon baking powder 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour 2 cups rolled oats 2 cups chocolate chips (semi-sweet, milk chocolate, or a little bit of both!)

Cherry Pie Cookie Cups

I love this recipe for the cookie cups! I made them this weekend and they turned out awesome!!! These cookie cups fantastic! The cookie dough and cherry pie filing sound wonderful together and perfect for Valentine’s Day.  These are so cute, and so amazingly delicious! I love fun holiday desserts. I have a family of 5 and I have to tell you this is brilliant. Everyone got individual little pies and there was no fighting 😀 I made 10 and no more ! fast simple and extremely tasty!!! LOVED this so much. I used cherry pink foil cupcake liners and used a full-sized cupcake pan. Since the amount of dough was bigger, I had to bake them longer and really keep an eye on it, but it worked out so well. Instead of using a powdered sugar drizzle, I melted white chocolate and drizzled that across. They look beautiful. I of course had to taste one. They are wonderful. This is such a brilliant idea! Seriousy fun! And perfect for Valentine’s  Get the full recipe and instructions here >> Cherry Pi
