  1. I had to make some tweaks on this simply because I didn't have everything on hand that I needed. Used queso fresco instead of feta (because I hate feta), left out the bacon and nuts due to dietary issues and instead of the parm/Italian seasoning on the meat itself I used 21 seasoning salute from trader joes. I covered the breasts for the first 20 or so minutes of cooking and then uncovered. OMG!!!! they were so delicious!!!! I will definitely be making this one again--may put bacon in next time, and usually you would never hear me say this, but in this case--bacon wasn't necessary! thank you for an amazing recipe and the pinnacle of my anniversary dinner. :)
     
  2. Awsome recipe. I did this on the grill and i didnt have the pine nuts so left them out and this was still outsanding!!!!!! I will definetly make this again and try it with the pine nuts. Also any left over stuffing going to try stuffed mushrooms with it. Thanks for sharing!!!
     
  3. This was THE best stuffed chicken breast I have EVER had! Hands down. I wouldn't change a thing to this recipe. I have made this for all of my friends and family. Never had a complaint. Thank you to the wonderful author of this recipe ;) Gotta try this with garlic mashed potatoes. Always a party pleaser. Cheers!
     
  4. Delicious! Added sliced mushrooms and left out the pine nuts & tomato. My husband LOVED it! My tip: Use extra spinach so the leftover "stuffing" can be eaten as a yummy dip!
     
  5. Fantastic recipe!! It tastes delicious and looks so pretty even the men at my dinner party raved about it!
