Pesto stuffed chicken breast



This is the best thing I've made in awhile. I made this recipe up. First I made some pesto in my relatively-new mini food processor. (I make a pretty simple, semi-lightened up version of pesto. I didn't have nuts, so I left them out and I use very little oil. I think most pesto recipes are way too oily.) I then mixed some of the pesto with a wedge of regular laughing cow cheese, and mixed in a little Parmesan cheese just because. I cut the chicken breast open on the side, creating like a pocket, and stuffed the pesto/cheese mixture in there. Closed it with a toothpick, and rolled it in some crunched up croutons I'm trying to get rid of. I was in heaven while I ate it.
