A Semi-healthy dinner idea

Crack chicken:

- Chicken breasts

- Seasonings of choice

- Cream cheese

- Bacon

- Green onions

- Shredded cheddar cheese

How to make:

- Preheat oven to 375° F

- Season your chicken breasts with whatever seasonings you prefer (I did garlic and onion powder, nature seasoning, and ranch seasoning)

- Place chicken in oven to cook while making your cream cheese mixture

- Next make your cream cheese mixture

- Add a block of softened cream cheese to a bowl and crumble up your cooked bacon into it (I did about 4 pieces of bacon)

- Next add about 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese to the mixture and add in your chives

- Add your preferred seasonings to mixture and mix everything until well incorporated

- Once everything is mixed take out your chicken from the oven and place a generous amount of cream cheese mixture on top of each breast

- Place your chicken back in oven and cook for 20-25 minutes depending on size of the chicken breasts

- Take out of oven once fully cooked and enjoy! 😋
