Chicken, Bacon, Spinach

There are a handful of standby paleo dishes I have where I usually have the ingredients on hand, and can make pretty quickly... Stuffed Peppers, Stir Fry,... and Chicken, Bacon, Spinach (we never really came up with a cool name... other than DELICIOUS).


Chicken, Bacon, & Spinach

5 slices bacon
1.5# chicken breast or breast tenderloin, cubed
5-6 handfuls of fresh spinach (could also use kale)
1/4 cup sun-dried tomatoes

Directions:
1. Cook the bacon in a big frying pan (has got to be able to fit everything)
2. Once bacon is cooked, remove bacon and crunch up in bits-- put it on a plate and save it for later
3. Cook your cubed chicken in the bacon fat
4. Once you chicken is cooked all the way through, add sun-dried tomatoes and spinach and bacon

You're done! Eat up. Makes delicious leftovers as well. I sometimes like to put smoky almonds on top as a garnish, or avocado if you're feeling frisky.

If you're feeling like you want to eat it with a starch, it's always delicious w/ mashed sweet taters. These are the greatest invention... mashed sweet taters from Trader Joe's. They're frozen mashed sweet potatoes, but they're frozen in these little discs that you pull out individually to use (so you can make as much or as little as you want).
