Chicken Stuffed with Prosciutto and Fresh Mozzarella

This is one of our favorite recipes for a week night. This recipe came about when Tom and I were walking around the grocery store one day...and that was about 6 years ago! We still love to make this all the time. This is a relativity quick and healthy dinner that can be prepared earlier in the day and then baked right before you are ready to eat. We like eating this meal with mashed potatoes or just a simple salad.
