Creamy Spinach-Stuffed Chicken Breast Recipe

    I found this recipe because I was looking for a spinach cream sauce, so I haven't actually made the stuffed chicken part. BUT the sauce was great and super easy and fast to make. used the same proportions and I had to substitute milk instead of cream. (I'm a poor college student, that hasn't gone food shopping yet this week.) It was a little watery because of that so I added a pinch of flour to make it a little thicker. Even this way, it was a great sauce. Next time I'm going to definitely try it with cream, and I think it will be perfect! Exactly the flavors I was looking for too.
