Spinach and Cheese Stuffed Chicken Breast #RSC
"Ready, Set, Cook! Hidden Valley Contest Entry. I love creating my own recipes and menus for people. I have been doing this since I was about 12 years old. I put together a birthday party with lots of freshly prepared food and cake that I prepared for my mom. I had help from my cousins and friends who were my assistants and servers. The party was a great success and I have been doing this ever since. I made this chicken dish 8 years ago and it was the only thing different my mom would eat so I made sure I perfected the dish just for her and of course others. I usually brine my chicken in a mixture of salt, brown sugar and water for at least 45 minutes"

I sauteed garlic with the spinach for extra flavor

The only thing I changed was Italian blend cheese instead of mozzarella because it's what I had on hand. I'm very impressed with this recipe!
