Spinach & Feta Stuffed Chicken
Serves 2
Isn’t chicken awesome! Thousands of ways to cook it, but I must say, stuffed chicken is 1 of my favourite methods of cooking chicken- the prep can always be done before hand and in the oven it goes! I love feta cheese & spinach so made this 1 night for dinner. It was delicious!
