Stuffed Chicken Breasts and Banana Pupcakes

Stuffing chicken breasts is an easy elegant looking meal. It's my go to when I'm on burn out with chicken. The possibilities are endless with stuffings. I'll list a few others that I've done at the end of the recipe.

Stuffed Chicken Breasts

2 chicken breasts
2 T feta cheese
2 T frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed
1 T sundried tomato paste
2 T breadcrumbs
1/2 t Italian seasoning, plus some for sprinkling

Preheat oven to 375. Spray a baking dish with cooking spray. Cut slits in the chicken breasts. Mix all other ingredients. Stuff chicken breasts evenly with the mixture. Place in baking dish. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. Bake 20 minutes or until chicken is done.

Other variations:
Goat cheese, sundried tomatoes, shallots, balsamic vinegar
thin sliced ham and laughing cow cheese

Now, on to the banana pupcakes...and no, that isn't a typo! This is a RR recipe. They are delish!!! Or, in the words of Rachael....YUM-O!! The simple sprinkling of powdered sugar is great, but cream cheese frosting would be even greater! Oh, and I did use lowfat buttermilk and egg beaters.
