New Roommates and Chicken Bombs!

Hey there! I hope everyone’s weekends were good! I’m trying to keep my promise and update more often! I had a great weekend, I got two new apartment mates! You guys, these girls are hysterical!

            I met Danielle on Saturday morning. I was doing a deep clean of my kitchen so when the new girls got there everything would look nice and clean. I was told that we had until noon to get everything ready before people showed up so it scared me when someone said hi to me Saturday morning. It scared me so bad you guys! I thought I was home alone, I went to bed with an empty house and never heard her come in. You know how first impressions are important? Well she got a great first impression of me. I was still in baggy shorts and a tank top with my wild morning hair. Yes, she saw me first thing in the morning. Great, right? I got to know her really well over the course of the day, she’s so sweet! Here’s the great thing, where is she from? Hawaii, yes I know! Well here she is!

Yes, she’s eating Spam & Eggs!

Then there’s Mary! Oh. My. Goodness. She is so funny! I haven’t known her as long (we just met on Sunday) but I have a feeling that we are so going to get along really well.

            Well, that’s all that been going on in my life lately. Here is one of my favorite recipes on the planet. No it’s not the healthiest, but it’s a treat. Here it is!

Chicken Bombs

Ingredients

5	boneless, skinless chicken breasts-makes 10 bombs:@)
5	jalapenos, sliced in half lengthwise and cleaned
20	slices bacon
4	oz. cream cheese, softened
1	C Colby jack or cheddar cheese, shredded
	S&P to taste
1	C BBQ sauce-I used Sweet Baby Ray's

Directions

Slice chicken breasts in half (like a hamburger bun), place between wax paper and pound until its ¼” thick. Season with S&P.

Mix the two cheeses together and smear about 1 Tbsp. into each pepper half (just use up the cheese between all of the peppers).

Place the pepper on the chicken breast and wrap it up as best you can. I suggest placing the pepper cheese side down so it gets completely covered by the chicken.
              Wrap each chicken breast completely with two pieces of bacon. Start at one end, wrap half the breast and finish the second half with the other piece of bacon.
              Cook on a preheated 350 degree grill over indirect heat for 30 minutes or until chicken is done. Turn every 5 minutes and baste with BBQ sauce each time you turn it.
              For oven: Bake at 375 degrees for 30 minutes or until chicken is done. Baste a couple times and finish under the broiler to set the BBQ sauce. **I suggest a 400 degree oven and no BBQ sauce for the first 20 minutes, turning once to help cook the bacon. Then reduce heat to 375, change pans to lose some of the bacon fat (if you don’t have a broiler pan), cover in BBQ sauce and finish baking
