"You will have filling left over which is great as a topping on toasted french bread slices. It can also be used as a spinach dip (but will be much denser than most dips)."

ingredients

24 ounces boneless skinless chicken breasts
3 medium button mushrooms, sliced

Thaw, drain and squeeze spinach.
Rinse, drain and squeeze artichoke hearts.
Saute garlic with olive oil over med/high heat.
Add cream cheese, goat cheese, spinach, artichoke hearts, hot sauce, and garlic to med-low sauce pan. Stir until cheeses are melted and everything is combined.
Flatten chicken breasts, season with salt and pepper.
Put 2-3 tbs of spinach mixture onto each chicken breast, top with sliced mushrooms and then roll it up or fold it over.

Bake at 350°F for 15-35 minutes (depends on how thinly you flattened the chicken breasts), taking them out about half way through to brush with more vinaigrette.
