1 cup shredded light mozzarella cheese, divided
2 ounces light cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup finely chopped red peppers
1/4 cup chopped oregano leaves
1/4 teaspoon garlic salt
4 small boneless skinless chicken breast halves, pounded to 1/4-inch thickness ( 1 lb.)
1 cup spaghetti sauce or 1 cup tomato sauce

Directions:
PREHEAT oven to 400 F.
Mix 1/2 cup of the shredded cheese, the cream cheese, peppers, oregano and garlic salt until well blended.
Shape into 4 logs.
Place 1 log on one of the short ends of each chicken breast; press into chicken lightly.
Roll up each chicken breast tightly, tucking in ends of chicken around filling to completely enclose filling.

BAKE 35 minute or until chicken is cooked through (170 F).
Remove foil; sprinkle chicken with remaining 1/2 cup shredded cheese.
