    Incredible!
    I make something similar to this, I bake the chicken breast in bread crumbs only, then when almost done I add 1-2 tbs of spaghetti sauce, shredded mozzarella cheese and fresh tomatoes with a sprinkle of basil to the top of each chicken breast. Then heat until cheese is melted. - 7/1/09

    Very Good
    This sounds really good - a fairly low cal comfort type food. A little high in calories and sodium but otherwise a keeper. I substituted soy and cut down on cheese. - 5/4/09
