Chicken Florentine

1 cup seasoned bread crumbs
6 chicken breasts
2 T vegetable oil
4 slices Swiss cheese, cut in half
*Sauteed mushrooms (optional)
1 (10 oz) package spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
3 cups spaghetti sauce

Butterfly the chicken breasts or pound them flat. Coat chicken with bread crumbs and brown with oil in a skillet. (* I skipped this part for the meal swap so it would freeze better and also make it healthier.)

In chicken, evenly distribute spinach, mushrooms, and top with slices of cheese. Fold chicken over and, if necessary, secure with toothpicks. Freeze.

To cook: Thaw and place in greased cooking dish. Top with spaghetti sauce. Bake uncovered at 400 degrees for 12-15 minutes or until heated through.

Yields 6, one chicken breast each.
