Serves 4
Per serving: 1 leaner, 1 healthy fat, ~2 condiments, and 1 green

Ingredients:

• 4 (8-oz) raw boneless skinless chicken breasts
• 1 (10-oz) pkg frozen chopped spinach
• ½ cup low-fat cream cheese
• ¼ cup Parmesan cheese
• 1 Tbsp minced garlic
• ¼ cup minced green onion
• ¼ tsp pepper
• 1/8 tsp salt if needed

Directions:

• Place plastic wrap on top of each chicken breast and using a meat mallet, pound them slightly thinner.
• To butterfly your chicken breasts, lay them flat on sturdy surface. Place one hand on top to hold it in place and then slice 3/4 of the way through the chicken breast using a sharp knife. Do not slice all the way through!
• Heat up the olive oil in a large skillet.
• Cook the chicken breast in a large skillet on medium heat, approximately 7 minutes a side, until they start to get golden brown and crispy on the outside and reach a temperature of 165°F. You want the meat to be cooked before you stuff them!
• Combine the spinach, cream cheese, Parmesan cheese, chives and garlic in a bowl and microwave to take the chill off. Make sure it’s nice and warm.
• Carefully spoon a quarter of the cheese mixture into the middle of the cooked chicken breasts.
• Turn the heat to low and put a lid on the skillet. Heat for another 5-7 minutes, until the cream cheese mixture has heated through.
• Remove and plate.

Enjoy! 

Ingredients:

• 44 oz ketchup
• 3/4 cup Apple Cider Vinegar
• 12 fl oz molasses
• 1.5 TBSP Crushed Red Pepper
• 1.5 TBSP Course Ground Black Pepper
• 1.5 TBSP Powdered Garlic
• 1 TBSP Dry Mustard
• 2.5 TBSP Worcestershire Sauce
• 2 sticks butter

Directions:

Mix together all ingredients in pot except butter.  Then add butter in sticks.  Cook over medium heat.  Stir frequently to keep from burning on the bottom of the pot.  Turn off heat after butter has melted and sauce begins to bubble.  Let sit for 45 minutes to an hour before putting into jars or bottles.  

Makes approximately 2 quarts.

Ingredients:

• 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 1 large can chicken broth (or you can use water)
• 1/3 to ½ cup mayonnaise (or more to taste)
• 1/3 to ½ cup Miracle Whip (or more to taste)
• 1/3 to ½ cup sour cream (or more to taste)
• 2 tsp lemon juice
• 2 tsp dried dill (or more to taste)                   
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 3/4 cup chopped celery (more or less)
• 3/4 cup slivered almonds, toasted in oven or under broiler (watch carefully!)

Directions:

Wash chicken breasts under cool water, pat dry and remove tendons as needed.  Simmer gently in chicken broth and enough water to cover for about 20 minutes, or until white and cooked all the way through.  Cool slightly, then slice into cubes or, using slicing blade in food processor, slice.  (May need to chop by hand a little more after slicing.)

While chicken is cooking, in medium-size bowl, combine mayonnaise, Miracle Whip, sour cream, lemon juice, dill and salt and pepper.  Stir to mix.  Add celery, almonds and chicken pieces.  Stir gently together and chill until ready to serve.  (Add more mayo, MW or sour cream if mixture seems too dry.)
