Smashed Potatoes and another stuffed Chicken Breast

I was in the mood to cook tonight.  I had to be.  It took forever!!!!!!

Let's start with the lengthy culprit....Smashed Potatoes

potatoes (I like red skin)
Garlic Salt
Cheddar cheese
Sour cream

Rinse potatoes will. Sprinkle with garlic salt.



Wrap in foil, poke lots of holes in foil and potatoes.  Bake at 350 for 60 min.




After the 60 min (or potatoes are softish) smash with a pan to make a cake like creation.


Drizzle with olive oil, more garlic salt. Bake an additional 10 min.

Sprinkle with cheddar cheese and bake til melted.  Top with sour cream.




Arugula, Goat Cheese, and Apple stuffed Balsamic Marinated Chicken Breast

Chicken breast
Balsamic vinegar
1 garlic clove
Red onion chopped
1 granny smith apple
Goat cheese
baby arugula
bacon

Marinate chicken in balsamic vinegar, garlic (chopped) and red onion for at least 1 hour.







Remove chicken from marinade and cut either in half or butterfly the breast. (I butterflied it but ended up cutting it in half.)






Place a layer of baby arugula, then apples (thinly sliced) and top with goat cheese.



Close the breast and wrap tightly with desired amount of bacon. Top with marinade that remained.




Bake for 20 min at 350.  Enjoy!!!!



Dinner was delicious and filling....Now to clean it all up and do my workout!
