Cream Cheese & Spinach Chicken Roll Ups

Cream Cheese Spinach Roll Up Chicken

Oh the many things you can do with Chicken!

I’ve made these before in the past… you can change it up so many different ways… But I like it because I’m sneaking spinach in on my kids and they have NO idea!!! They just gobble up their chicken and tell me they are ready for desert!

I don’t know about you … but my kids don’t get desert unless they clean there plates… typically the big boys (age 7 & 9) don’t have a problem… but the 4 almost 5 year old misses out on desert a couple times a week… He’s still learning! 😀

Ingredients:

2 chicken breasts
8 oz pack of cream cheese
spinach (i used fresh baby spinach this time… I’ve also used frozen)
1 egg
bread crumbs
Ritz crackers (optional)
Mozzarella cheese

Pre-Heat oven to 375 degrees
