Spinach and Cheddar Stuffed Chicken

This is seriously so good!  Pair it with brown rice or some red potatoes for a delicious and healthy meal! 

Ingredients

4-6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts very thin
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1  package chopped frozen spinach, cooked 
 sea salt
 ground black pepper
 garlic powder
 paprika
1/2  tbsp olive oil
 toothpicks


Instructions
Preheat over to 350 degrees. If your chicken breasts are not already thin, pound them with a mallet until thin. This makes the chicken easier to fold in half. Place them in a baking dish.

Coat chicken (both sides) with sea salt, pepper, garlic powder and paprika.

Sprinkle cheddar cheese evenly on top of the chicken breasts. Save a little bit to add to the top after you fold them.

Sprinkle spinach evenly on top of the cheese. 

Fold your chicken breasts in half and secure with 2-3 toothpicks each.

Brush the tops of the chicken breasts with olive oil.
Cover baking dish with tin foil and place in the over. Cook for about 20-25 minutes or until chicken is fully cooked.

Remove tin foil and sprinkle chicken with the remaining cheese.

Bake uncovered for an additional 5 minutes, or until cheese is melted.

Don't Be Fooled By a Quick Fix

As I was walking through the store recently I saw shelf after shelf of diet pills and all these products that promised to help you lose weight FAST!  I used to have a love/hate relationship with this aisle...

❤️ - I thought one of them might work. I was excited to lose the lbs. quickly. 

๐Ÿšซ - I was wasting my money because while some of them made me feel better, I didn't lose weight...
At least not long term!

Now I just HATE ๐Ÿšซ this aisle. There's so much more to life than being skinny. Your goal should be ➡️ HEALTHY!  Unfortunately the products on those shelves are anything but healthy. 

As I checked the ingredients in these products, it broke my heart. So many of these products contain extra caffeine and other stimulants like guarana, and one of the scariest to me... a supplement called bitter orange (Synephrine).  It is VERY similar to ephedra with the same types of side effects (Increased heart rate and blood pressure; reports of anxiety, stroke, irregular heartbeat, heart attack). There's a reason it is banned by the NCAA. 

No amount of weight loss is worth risking your health. I don't care what route you take with your weight loss but PLEASE do your research on stimulants before jumping on board with something.  Friends don't let friends ruin their health for the number on a scale!

What's your dream job?

So, when my coach asked me to be a coach, I said….

๐ŸšซNO WAY!

๐ŸI am not a nutritionist!

๐Ÿ†I'm not at my goal weight. 

๐Ÿ’ผI am not a salesperson!

๐ŸšฉI don’t want to be obligated to coach!

๐Ÿค‘What are the fees?

❌I don’t want to be tied down!

BUT…

I listened to the answers to these questions and I dove in planning to just coach to get the discount.  Then I had people asking me what I was doing and if I could help them.  So, I jumped right in!  I LOVE helping others and seeing them be happy with their results.  I LOVE hearing other people say I didn’t give up because of you!  I LOVE watching others create financial freedom for their family because they said YES to one little call! 

It’s just a phone call..☎️

but it could change the rest of your life FOREVER!  Just say YES!✅
