i wanted to share a recipe that I tried yesterday. I've been having serious food fatigue. This was a nice change and next i'm Going to try a Mexican flared chicken meatloaf.

• 2 pounds ground chicken
• 1/4 cup egg whites
• 1/3 cup cornflake crumbs
• 2-3 cloves garlic, minced
• 5 slices bacon, cooked and chopped
• 1 packet ranch dressing seasoning, powder(I'd add a half a packet next time)
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 1/2 cup light ranch dressing

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
2. In a large bowl combine the ground chicken, egg whites, crumbs, garlic, bacon, ranch seasoning, and 1/2 cup of the shredded cheddar cheese. Mix the mixture with your hands. Place into a greased loaf pan and form the chicken mixture into a loaf shape. Top the meatloaf with the ranch dressing.
3. Bake for 50-55 minutes or until chicken is cooked. When done remove and remove and add the additional 1/2 cup of shredded cheddar cheese on top. Return the meatloaf to the oven until the cheese is melted. Remove from the oven and let the meatloaf rest for 5-10 minutes before serving

I put it at 12 servings per recipe but actually ate less.

This sounds great! Thanks a ton

That does sound good! I'll pass the recipe on to my hubby...since he does much of the cooking.

I may cut it in half since it's only the two of us..

Thanks for sharing Mels!

This sounds yummy! Thanks! I am going to add it to MFP recipes. I have a bunch that I want to try that I've loaded up.

It's hard for me to share recipes, as my cooking is very improvisational. If you like fennel, I do have two recipes: a chicken soup (no pasta) and a sausage and lentil stew. I'll try to remember what I threw in the instant pot if any of that sounds good to anyone. I know that fennel is polarizing, so no hard feelings if you aren't interested.

I love fennel but i've never really cooked with it -- I've grilled it a couple of times and I add fennel seed to any italian sausage i buy -- it seems outside the midwest, you can't get good italian sausage unless you doctor your own (my opinion only). I'd be interested in your iP recipes!

This does sound yummy, can't wait to try it. We have a recipe forum here and if you have an IP (instant pot) there is a group here that has some great recipes also.
