Cream Cheese Stuffed Chicken
Ingredients
- 4 chicken breasts, boneless
- 8 oz. cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup Italian bread crumbs
- 1 TBSP parsley, chopped finely
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Cut chicken breasts in the middle but not all the way through so that you can stuff the chicken.
- Mix softened cream cheese and chopped parsley together in a bowl.
- Add cream cheese mixture to chicken and fold chicken over to close the cheese inside. Secure with a toothpick.
- Sprinkle chicken with a layer of Italian breadcrumbs.
- Salt and pepper to taste.
- Bake chicken at 350 degrees (F) for approximately 45 mins.
We serve it with a grain, pasta, or potato side dish and a veggie or salad. Egg noodles have been getting a lot of play at our house lately because our kids really like them. Feel free to sub any side dishes that you like. This chicken dish goes well with most everything! Enjoy!
Cheers,

LITTLE HOUSE ON THE PRAIRIE PARTY
What began as a simple gesture to introduce my daughter to a wonderful book series has become a special evening ritual for us- reading Laura Ingalls Wilder’s Little House books! I must admit, I didn’t realize quite how interesting these books would be to her, but she cannot wait to read all nine in the series. It was only fitting that her birthday party focus around Little House on the Prairie! Together, we had a ball planning all of the details of her party that related to the books in some way. At Camille’s request, we focused on some of her favorite parts of the stories… prairie flowers, covered wagons, tee pees, the colors in the drawings of the books, and “pretty”…because “Ma” liked things to be pretty!
