How To Cook a 5 Star Meal Without a Hassle

These ridiculously easy bacon wrapped cream cheese stuffed chicken breasts are to die for. Seriously, I could barely wait for these to finish baking, but I tried really hard to control my urges to pick at the half-cooked chicken. It is amazing how few ingredients are necessary for these delicious and moist breasts. These also take very little prep and are great when you are in a rush. We all know sometimes eating chicken breasts can be challenging due to the fact the breast gets so dry from the low-fat content, well this recipe counteracts this with bacon and cream cheese!

Whenever I make these chicken breasts for dinner my kid’s eyes light right up. My husband gets pretty darn excited, too. You see, we are a family of carnivorous bacon eaters. My family and I tend to get pretty excited about foods that contain bacon. To us, bacon is a gift from pigs. Thank you, piggies!

Now, hen you wrap your bacon around your chicken breasts prepare for an explosion of flavor. They meat comes out so juicy and tender that your eyes will roll back in your head. Don’t believe me? Follow the recipe on the next page and see for yourself 🙂

This dessert will be on my tasty top ten when I do it for desserts. I love the pucker it gives you, along with the denseness of the pound cake and the creaminess of the frosting. Cream cheese with key lime is genius! This really comes out as if it’s from a high-end bakery; the contrast of sour and sweet is divine. Seriously, I think if the amazing Chef Gordan Ramsey himself gave this luscious pounder a try he would actually have something nice to say about it.

I made this amazing key lime cake with cream cheese frosting for a party that I went to last summer. It’s light and refreshing and perfect for a balmy day treat. All of the ladies loved it. I found that the cake went well with iced sweetened tea. Everyone enjoyed the cake and was buggering me for the recipe. I was writing it down on paper napkins!

I know some of you who are die hard mashed potato aficionados will be saying, “A Casserole?” But as the original poster states, after one bite of these, you will be won over. This casserole is not only extremely tasty – it has a great texture, as well. And here is the kicker; it’s really easy to make! So please give this delicious and easy mashed potato recipe a try, and let us know what you think.

Here’s a great tip from one of the readers, on how to make this ahead:

A holiday lifesaver: moving mashed potato tasks to a day or two before. For more traditional potatoes skip the bread crumb/cheese topping. To mitigate the sour cream cut that by half and sub in a little softened cream cheese and some warmed milk (skim!), which also provided the extra moisture others have noted. Kept for 2 days in the fridge in an ordinary foil steam pan, potatoes reheated perfectly (an hour at 350 – not 400) and tasted “just made.”

Wow, these drunken cupcakes will be the life of the party for any occasion (other than your one-year old’s birthday party)! But seriously, these cupcakes have a depth of flavor that you just cannot get out of a regular chocolate cupcake. The texture is also amazing; they are moist and have the perfect balance of denseness. The secret to that is obviously the Guinness and the sour cream. Who knew! I would have been using a stout and sour cream in all my cupcakes if I knew that they would turn out like this! In addition to the yummyness of these, they are relatively easy to make – no harder than any of your standard cupcakes.

Here’s a funny comment from one of the readers over at Irish Central:

I have to stop reading these food articles, gained another 2 pounds then fell on me face.  Guess I will have to wait a bit before I start to run again…

Haha! You’d better at least be careful! These are the perfect cupcakes to go with a strong cup of coffee, or a big scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Savor The Flavors Of Sweet Honey And Seasonings Baked Onto Tender Chicken Breasts When You Make This Recipe

This honey roasted chicken recipe comes out perfectly! In fact, the proof is in how well it smells as it’s cooking. I mean, wow, just wow! I was cooking this meal up the other day and my husband came in from working outside and was wondering how long before we could eat this flavorful masterpiece. Now, if you know anything about my husband, it’s that nothing, not even food, can pull him away from his work. You can’t ask for a better balance between savory and sweet.

It was perfectly cooked, tender and juicy inside but with the skin crispy! This really is reminiscent of some down home southern cooking for sure. The original poster of this recipe said that she liked this as a child so this is some home cooking, just not sure from what area of the country. The kicker to all of this is how simple and easy this Tastee recipe really is.

I will definitely be adding this recipe to my top secret recipe box. A gem like this should be kept with care 🙂
