Using about 1/4 of the mixture stuff each breast, secure with toothpicks if needed and place onto a prepared greased baking dish. Spoon sauce over all and sprinkle with remaining cheese. Bake until done, brown and bubbly and the juices run clear, about 30 minutes and the temperature inside the breast is 160 degrees F which continues up to 165F after a 5 minutes rest.
