Spinach Chicken Breast

Submitted by Missi cook

"This is a quick and easy meal for lunch or supper. Its healthy and tasty! I made it up one night for supper for me and my sister. It was really quick, tasty and not too filling, but just right. It is healthy and spinach actually has more nutrients than any other food! If you want it even healthier, try whole wheat noodles rather than white. I am not too fond of measurements so these are close but approximates, so feel free to adjust as necessary. Enjoy this simple meal as a light, healthy new recipe!"

My sister and I are trying new recipes while she is here. This one is excellent! Next time I make this I will add more lemon juice, tarragon, and garlic. Just for fun I will also be adding sliced fresh mushrooms, crisp fried and crumbled bacon and more garlic. "We are a "louder" flavored family. Just leaving this recipe alone is still a wonderful and exciting new dish! You are missing out if you don't try this one!
