Check out how delicious dinner looks before it even goes into the oven!
And this shot was taken BEFORE I added the ranch dressing drizzle
This was another meal I tried in hopes that my daughter would enjoy it (shout out to Whitney: Please, kid. Eat something! ANYTHING!). Whit (allegedly) likes broccoli at daycare and I know she tolerates cheese and the occasional carb, so I thought it might be a hit. She was asked to take 3 bites or risk losing her bedtime story; she took exactly 1 bite, held it in her mouth for 5 minutes, and vehemently spit it onto the floor.
Whit likes to help with meals more than she likes to eat them
So yeah, not a big hit with my toddler. HOWEVER, Chase and I really liked it. It didn't taste the way I imagined it would taste, the stuffing was a little mushy, and the whole thing was surprisingly salty, but it was tasty just the same. The only modifications I made to the recipe were to add 2 more pieces of bacon (I had to restrain myself from adding the whole package. Mmm bacon) and a bit more cheese because Whitney, my slave labourer, insisted on PACKING the shredded cheese into the measuring cup (yeah, I totally measured the cheese. I'm that kind of cook).

The finished product doesn't look as delicious as the before shot, but it WAS (more so because raw chicken? Not right). I would definitely make this meal again on the regular.
