Healthy Spinach and Mozzarella Stuffed Chicken Breast
Healthy Spinach and Mozzarella Stuffed Chicken Breast
2 chicken breasts
1/3 cup Vegenaise
1/4 cup Greek Yogurt
1/3 cup skimmed Mozzarella cheese
1 clove Garlic (minced)
2 cups raw Spinach
Grilled vegetables (I used broccoli, yellow squash and bell peppers)
1. Set the oven to 375 degrees.
2. Mix the Vegenaise, Greek yogurt, garlic and cheese into a bowl.
3. Chop the fresh spinach and add to the yogurt mix.
4. Place each chicken breast between two sheets of heavy plastic (resealable freezer bags work well) on a solid, level surface. Firmly pound the chicken with the smooth side of a meat mallet to an thickness of about 1/4 inch.
5. Lay a flattened chicken breast out onto a work surface, spoon the spinach stuffing on the chicken. Roll the chicken breast around the stuffing and secure with toothpicks. Place the rolls into a baking dish.
6. Bake in the preheated oven until the chicken is no longer pink and the stuffing is melted and hot, about 35 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of a roll should read at least 165 degrees F
7. While the chicken is baking, grill the vegetables in a skillet, serve with the chicken!
