That’s a big title.. but that’s ok, this delicious meal lives up to its long name! I had some spinach in the fridge that needed to be used up and I had taken chicken out for dinner, so I just put the two together and added two of the best foods around… BACON & CHEESE!!! 🙂 This is a pretty simple dish to make and there is not much prep time to it. And as a bonus the non veggie eater I am got some greens in today.. yay me! 😉

8pp each

Ingredients

▢ 4-6 oz boneless skinless chicken breast
▢ 1.5 cups chopped fresh spinach
▢ 1/3 cup fresh grated asiago cheese
▢ 3 T fat free cream cheese
▢ Juice from 1/2 lemon, about 2T
▢ 8 slices of uncooked bacon, to keep points low I use oscar mayer center cut, 2 slices=1pp
▢ Directions.

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375F
Wash and chop up your spinach, soften your cream cheese, I microwave mine for about 35 seconds at half power.
Mix your cheeses, spinach and lemon juice together.
Slice open your chicken breast and stuff 1/4 of the mixture into each piece.
Wrap two pieces of bacon around each breast.
Bake on a flat sheet, lined with foil for easy clean up. Spray some cooking spray on your foil. Cook in oven for approx 40-45 minutes until your bacon is cooked. You can turn over after 25-30 minutes to make sure the bacon on the bottom cooks thoroughly.
