INGREDIENTS
1 pound ground chicken
3/4 cup ground rolled oats (like breadcrumb texture) *I ground mine to a coarse mixture. Do not grind to a flour. To make gluten free, use gluten free oats
1/4 cup Syntrax Medical Unflavored Protein Powder
2 Tbl sweet yellow onions, minced
1 tsp oregano
1/2 tsp basil (dried) or 1 tsp fresh, chopped
1 tsp Montreal Steak Seasoning
1 large whole egg (or 3 tsp egg whites)
1 1/2 cups fresh spinach leaves, pulsed in the food processor (should render almost 3/4-1 cup)
1 tsp Worcestershire
3/4 tsp coarse salt
3/4 tsp ground black pepper
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese (you don’t want the powdery stuff. You want it either grated or even pulsed to little chunks. You want texture.)
1/2 cup grated mozzarella
2 cloves garlic, minced
3 cups Marinara Sauce, divided
10-20 fresh mozzarella slices (it depends on how big your slices are. They should be 1”wide by 1-2” long)
Olive Oil for misting
