16 ounces turkey breast tenderloins
2 cups chopped spinach leaves
3 ounces semi-soft goat cheese (chevre) or 3 ounces feta cheese, crumbled (about 3/4 cup)
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8-1/4 teaspoon ground red pepper

Steps:

Make a pocket in each tenderloin by cutting lengthwise from one side almost to, but no through, the other side; set aside.
In a bowl, combine spinach, cheese, and black pepper. Spoon the mixture into the pockets and tie kitchen string around each tenderloin in 3 or 4 places.
In a small bowl, combine oil, paprika, salt, and ground red pepper; brush evenly over tenderloins.
Grill on lightly-greased rack of an uncovered grill directly over medium heat for 16-20 minutes or until turkey is no longer pink in the center, turning once. Remove strings and slice crosswise.
