Pepper Jack & Spinach Stuffed Chicken

I must say that this chicken has started to make its way into your meal rotation. I love that it is so quick & simple but gives you maximum taste results! You can always mix it you if you don't like pepper jack, I think swiss would also work great. We like a bit of spicy so this works perfect at our house.




4 boneless skinless chicken breast
1 thick slice of pepper jack cheese per chicken breast ( so for this I used 4)
a handfull of fresh spinach per chicken breasts
toothpicks
spicy chicken spice ( i used Weber- kickin Chicken)



In a baking dish, spray with cooking spray.
then cut open your chicken breast to make a little pocket, add in your spinach & cheese. secure with a toothpick. continue to do this for how many breasts you need. In my case I only cooked 4.
after they are assembled sprinkle on top some Kickin Chicken & black pepper.
cover with tin foil.
cook in the oven at 350 for 35-40 mins.
let cool remove toothpicks & enjoy! its really that simple!

Hope you let me know how yours turned out.

Homemade Turkey Sloppy Joes

This is by far one of my most favorite recipes. Making your own sauce for a sloppy joe is really simple & just taste so much better than the canned version. It only takes a bit of time to chop out some things to go into it, which you can always do ahead of time to make an even quicker meal on the weekdays.


1 pound ground turkey or beef
1 Tbsp woreschester sauce
1 small yellow onion- diced
1 medium red bell pepper- diced
3 1/2 Tbsp minced garlic
1 cup ketchup
1 cup water
2 Tbsp brown sugar
2 tsp chili powder
1 tsp yellow mustard
salt to taste ( about 1 tsp)
pepper to taste (about 1 Tbsp) - I love Pepper~!


Brown your meat, drain any excess fat if needed. When meat is cooked add in diced onion, bell pepper & garlic. Cook a few minutes, until onion & bell pepper start to soften.

Next add in ketchup, stir until combined. Then add in salt & pepper- mix well.

Now add in water, and stir in brow sugar, chili powder & mustard. Combine well.

Simmer for 15-20 minutes.

while that is simmering I like to toast my hamburger buns.

Enjoy!!
Please leave a comment letting me know how it turned out for you & share with friends!
