  • 1 tablespoon(s) light mayonnaise
  • 1 clove(s) (small) garlic, crushed with press
  • 2 teaspoon(s) Dijon mustard

Directions
  1. In small bowl, combine Gruyère, mayonnaise, garlic, 1 teaspoon mustard, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
  2. On each piece chicken, spread 1 heaping tablespoon spinach up to 3/4 inch from edges. Place 2 teaspoons cheese mixture on spinach at one short end, in a strip, 1 inch from edges. Roll up, starting at end with cheese. Secure with toothpicks to enclose filling.
