Ingredients
8 oz raw cottage cheese1/2 cup raw shredded cheddar cheese2 jalapeno peppers, seeded and minced4 strips of turkey bacon, diced4 (6 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
Directions
1. Cook the turkey bacon in a skillet, let cool and then dice

2. Stir together the cottage cheese, cheddar cheese, bacon, and jalapenos in a small bowl.

3. Cut a pocket horizontally through the thickest side of each chicken breast, and fill with 1/4 of the cheese mixture.

4. Place on george forman grill (seam side towards the incline of the grill) for about 5 mins (or more for golden color). If your chicken breasts are thick, they can be finished in a 350-degree oven.

If you don't have a george forman grill you can use coconut oil in a pan on the stove to cook about 8 mins on each side. Make sure to seal the pocket with toothpicks so the stuffing doesn't come out.
