Cheesy Chicken Spinach Bake is loaded with a creamy cheese mixture, sautéed spinach and chicken breasts. This is a delicious low carb meal and really simple to prepare!

Over the last 6 months I had been feeling mildly depressed and was packing on some extra weight. I was feeling lousy. After Kale started working from home with me we agreed we had extra time to get in regular exercise. We bought a gym membership and made it a habit to exercise 4 to 5 days a week. It had been a good minute since I had seen the inside of a gym, let alone got my heart rate over 100. haha. So for the last 4 weeks we have been consistently going and we are both feeling awesome! I also love that it’s something we can do together.

Ingredients

2 to 3 large boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut in half lengthwise to form thinner cutlets

2 Tablespoons olive oil, divided

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

6 ounces cream cheese, softened

2 cups baby spinach leaves

1 cup shredded Mozzarella cheese
