Meats, Dairy, Eggs		Poultry, Main dish	24	Servings

INGREDIENTS

2	md	Onions; finely chopped
2	tb	Butter
20	oz	Frozen spinach thawed and drained
2	lb	Whole-milk ricotta cheese
2		Eggs; slightly beaten
1/2	c	Coarsely chopped parsley
2	tb	Fresh herbs (Oregano, summer savory, Chervil, etc.)
		Salt
		Freshly ground pepper
		Nutmeg; to taste
16		Halves of chicken breast (order the chicken boned, split, with the skin on)

INSTRUCTIONS

Saute the onions in butter until soft.  Combine with the other ingredients
(except chicken) and mix well. Season highly. Place each breast skin side
up on a board. Trim away excess fat. Loosen skin from 1 side of breast and
stuff approximately 1/3 cup of the filling under the skin. Tuck the skin
and meat under breast, forming an even, round, dome shape. Put the stuffed
breasts in a buttered Pyrex or metal baking dish. Fifteen minutes before
baking, preheat over to 350 F (175 C). Bake breasts until golden brown,
about 30 to 35 minutes. Don't overcook or chicken will be dry. Cool
slightly before serving, and cool to room temperature if you are going to
slice into smaller serving pieces. Arrange on platters and decorate with
fresh herbs.

A Message from our Provider:

“Gratitude is our ability to see the grace of GOD, morning by morning, no matter what else greets us in the course of the day.”

It seems fair to ask, “God, do You really expect less of me – who has your Holy Spirit within and lives in the wealthiest society in human history – than You demanded of the poorest Israelite?”… The tithe is God's historical method to get us on the path of giving. In that sense, it can serve as a gateway to the joy of grace giving. It is unhealthy to view tithing as a place to stop, but it can be a good place to start… Tithing isn't the ceiling of giving; it's the floor. It's not the finish line of giving; it's just the starting blocks… True, some would be sacrificing more by giving 5% of their income than others would be by tithing or even giving 50 or 90%. Certainly the affluent should never “check off the box,” as if giving 10% automatically fulfills their obligation. The 90% belongs to God, too. He doesn't look at just what we give. He also looks at what we keep… When people tell me they can't afford to tithe, I ask them, “If your income was reduced by 10% would you die?” They say, “No.” And I say, “Then you've admitted that you can afford to tithe. It's just that you don't want to”… I have no problem with people who say “we're not under the tithe,” just as long as they're not using that as justification for giving less. But in my mind the current giving statistics among Christians clearly indicate most of us need a jump-start. If you find a gateway to giving that's better than the tithe, wonderful. But if not, why not start where God started His First Covenant children?
