    Awesome recipe :flowerforyou: and you can sub the broccoli for spinach, try different types of cheese - lots a variations are possible:

    Yields: 4 servings
    Calories: 322
    Carbs: 10g
    Fat: 8g
    Protein: 44g
    Sodium: 782 mg (this will be reduced greatly if you use the breadcrumb version)

    Remember: these numbers are entirely dependent on the brand you use

    4 6oz chicken breasts
    1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
    2 cups broccoli, chopped small then steamed
    Parmesan crusted shake n bake (For a healthier version instead of the "cheating" version, use italian bread crumbs and one egg white)

    Pound the chicken flat, so it's about 1/2" thick with a large surface area. By pounding the chicken, you will also make it very tender once cooked.

    Top chicken with 1/4 c. shredded cheese and 1/4 c. steamed broccoli. (broccoli will reduce in volume once steamed)

    Roll the chicken up and secure with toothpicks - approximately 4 toothpicks per breast.

    Coat chicken with the shake n bake (or dip chicken in egg white, then roll in bread crumbs) and place on a foil lined baking sheet. (By lining the baking sheet, you are seriously cutting back on your post-dinner clean up).

    Cook 35-40 minutes at 350 degrees.

    Enjoy!

    Sounds very yummy.
    I'm always scared to eat so much cheese.... seems like a lot.
    1/4 cup per breast sounds reasonable...??
