Spinach & Feta Cheese Stuffed Chicken Breast #RSC

Ready, Set, Cook! Hidden Valley Contest Entry. This is an easy chicken dish that I came up with for my wife who asked me to make something different for dinner. The only meat she really eats is chicken and has recently found a love for feta cheese. She always dips her chicken in ranch dressing. Although there is no actual dressing it has that ranch taste from the Hidden Valley original Ranch seasoning mix. So, this was a little concoction I came up with and she LOVED it!
