Start by putting cream cheese in a bowl. It's easier to mix if the cream cheese is at room temperature, but if it's cold, just stir extra.

Add 1/4 cup of mozzarella cheese and a bit of leftover parmesan cheese to the bowl. If you have less parmesan, double the mozzarella.

Add a pinch of salt and a big pinch of black pepper, then mix everything together to distribute evenly.

Microwave the mixture for about 30 seconds to make it easier to stir.

Chop 6 oz of baby spinach finely and add it to the cheese mixture, then mix it in.

Prepare the chicken breasts by cutting off extra fat.

Cut about 2/3 of the way through each chicken breast to create a pocket for stuffing.

Stuff the chicken breasts with the cheese and spinach mixture.

Season the outside of the chicken breasts with salt, paprika, and black pepper.

Drizzle a little olive oil on the chicken and mix it with the seasonings for a nice coating.

Place the stuffed chicken into the Dreo ChefMaker basket.

Set the machine to cook at 375°F for 16 minutes using the app, which also provides a countdown timer.

Once the timer goes off, check the chicken for doneness and remove it from the machine.

Plate the chicken and prepare for the next batch.
