Spinach and Bacon Stuffed Chicken Breast

I really like shoving stuff in chicken. Sauces and marinades get so boring after awhile, stuffing chicken opens up a world of culinary opportunity. Given that the theme of this blog has quickly gone from being about almond butter to being about bacon, I figured bacon was an appropriate ingredient for chicken stuffing. These are super yummy, enjoy!

Spinach and Bacon Stuffed Chicken Breast:

Ingredients:

• 3 chicken breasts
• 6 pieces of bacon
• 2 cups spinach
• salt and pepper
• olive oil

Cook bacon in skillet. When bacon is done, remove from skillet then cook spinach in bacon grease for about 30 seconds- just enough to soften it a little. Chop bacon. Make a slit in chicken breasts lengthwise (if you don't know how to cut chicken breasts for stuffing, google it). Season chicken on both sides with salt and pepper.  Stuff bacon and spinach into chicken, holding together with toothpicks if necessary. Grease the bottom of a baking dish with olive oil and bake for 35 minutes at 350 degrees.
