Are your teeth hurting? Too much candy, cookies and other sweets over the past couple weeks? Ouch. Mine too. Not to worry though, I’ve got the perfect thing for you…Spinach and Sun Dried Tomato Stuffed Chicken.
Not to mention a little cheese. Serve this with some roasted broccoli and zucchini and wild rice and you have one delicious dinner.
Don’t worry about me though. I’ll have some sweets up here soon enough! I mean, really, I can’t go too long without being in my kitchen baking up a storm!

yum! I love stuffed chicken and sun dried tomatoes are my favorite! Happy new year, Aimee!
Mmmm this chicken sounds wonderful! And yes, my teeth ache from all the sweets over the holidays. But I’m like you, I’ll be baking here again in no time! : D
Great post! I’m totally sugared-out too! …wait. Am I allowed to say that??
This looks so delicious. I cannot wait to give it a try. Come visit. We have a wonderful low fat blue cheese dip to use on veges or crackers. Delicious.
Sugared out yes, but honestly that is just how I like it. But unfortunately my pants don’t like it that much, so it is time to restrain my sweet tooth…for just a little while. This chicken sounds delish!!!!
That looks wonderful!
Pinned this to make soon!
