1 large onion, peeled and sliced
1 (4 ounce) can sliced mushrooms, drained
1 stalk celery, thinly sliced
1 large egg, beaten

Recipe
Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees F. Cut chicken breasts in half. Place
between sheets of plastic wax; gently pound with a meat mallet to
flatten evenly. In a large skillet, sauté onion slices, mushrooms, and
celery until tender. Remove from heat. Add egg, parsley, bread crumbs,
Parmesan cheese, 1 cup of Mozzarella cheese and Italian seasoning. Stir
until well-combined. .Sprinkle chicken breasts with salt and pepper and
fill with even portions of the filling mixture. Roll up and secure with
toothpicks. Spray a lasagna pan with cooking spray and arrange chicken
in bottom. Spoon any extra filling around the chicken rolls. Pour
pasta sauce over the stuffed chicken breast rolls. Sprinkle second cup
of grated Mozzarella cheese on top. Bake uncovered at 350 degrees F for
1 hour. Carefully remove toothpicks and serve with cooked brown rice.
Serves 4 to 6.
