Use the meat to make Chicken Divan. This recipe looks so good! I can't wait to make it but I have a bit of a stomach bug right now so no food for me for a bit. :(

Serve with your choice of side. I think I would probably go with some mashed potatoes and corn. But that's just me. :) I love mashed potaoes and corn with everything. LOL

There is a take and bake place in town that has the most amazing lemon chicken artichoke soup. I decided to try to make a copy of it at home.

Smoked Gouda Stuffed Meatloaf

Do you buy ground beef or have your meat gound up fresh? I love to have ours ground up fresh. It's the only way I buy it. I usually use sirloin tip or london broil, and have used a couple of other cuts before too. I just watch for it to go on sale. Sirloin tip was on sale this time and I decided to make meatloaf again. I wanted something different for this one, so I thought why not stuff it with smoked gouda cheese! This was really good. Hope you enjoy it as much as we did! Smoked Gouda Stuffed Meatloaf 2 tablespoons butter 2 onions, diced 5 cloves of garlic, minced ½ cup of ketchup (I used just a tad less than ½ cup) ¾ cup of breadcrumbs 1 teaspoon of thyme 2 eggs 2 pounds of ground beef 1/3 pound of smoked gouda, cut into sticks (like cheese sticks only smaller) Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. In a sauté pan over medium heat, melt butter and then add the diced onion. Sauté until translucent. Add the minced garlic, allowing it to cook for a minute or two. ...
