Last night I decided to try a recipe called Jalapeno Popper Chicken...
2 chicken breasts - pounded flat and patted dry with paper towel
1/2 a block of softened cream cheese
1 t garlic powder
1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese
2 jalapenos, deseeded/cleaned, and minced
4 slices of bacon
salt and pepper to taste
Preheat oven at 375 degrees
Pounded the chicken flat, seasoned both sides with salt and pepper to taste
In a mixing bowl - combined the cream cheese, jalapeno, garlic powder, and cheddar cheese and mixed till well blended
Spread the cheese mixture on the chicken breasts, thickly and evenly
Then rolled the chicken up, used toothpick to hold secure
Wrapped each breast with two pieces of bacon
Placed in a 8X8 casserole dish and baked for 45 minutes - till bubbly brown
Then turned the broiler on high - and broiled it till bacon crisped up - about 10 minutes
It was yummy, but my son loved it more than I did... he ate his chicken breast, and then turned and ate the half that I had left on my plate... and told me he loved it...
Today I am not hungry... I know I should eat a snack or something, but honestly... I just don't want anything and feel like I'd be miserable if I forced something down. So, I'm drinking lots of fluids, water and tea...
Full of energy - woke up to a gloomy gray foggy morning, but didn't matter --- didn't affect my mood or energy level. I hope my energy remains up this weekend, as I plan to keep very busy... going to stock up on fruit and vegetables... tomorrow I am trying an Eggplant Pizza recipe...
