Here's a really easy recipe I make pretty often - can be used for a casual dinner or for entertaining.

Bacon-wrapped chicken

Raw chicken breasts
Alouette garlic-herb cheese spread (you can also use other varieties, and I use the reduced fat versions)
Uncooked bacon
Salt and pepper

It's simple - just spread some of the cheese spread over the raw chicken, loop around the bacon a few times, and set in the pan. You don't need to grease the pan, but I usually spray it with Pam. Sprinkle all with salt and pepper. Bake in preheated oven at 375 for 40 minutes or until juices run clear. I broil it for the last two or three minutes to crisp up the bacon.

If you want to make it a little fancier, butterfly the chicken breasts, then pound them out to about one inch even thickness. Stuff them with the cream cheese and layer in fresh herbs or baby spinach. Bake as indicated above.

This works to prep ahead of time and refrigerate it overnight - then just bake it five or ten minutes longer the next day. I like to serve it with wild rice (I'm from MN) and asparagus. Yum!

I am so going to try this!

I just made an amazingly yummy dinner that I found in my Mayo Clinic cookbook. Fish tacos with fresh salsa and roasted red pepper sauce. Here's the recipe online:

I picked up fresh Tilapia at the store instead of swordfish. It took about 2 minutes longer to cook than recommended for swordfish and it created a lot of drippings. I would recommend instead of having hard shell tacos to make burritos and add some rice inside to soak up the yummy salsa and roasted red pepper sauce. It did take a while to prep but all the fresh ingredients were great on the warm day we had today. My fiancee really loved it so I'll have to try again soon with the burritos and rice additions.
