Stuffed Meatloaf

I made this for the first time for dinner tonight. I put all the olives just one one half of the roll since DH does not like olives.


1/2 cup skim milk
2 egg beaters
1 Tbs worcestershire sauce
1 cup crushed corn flakes
1/2 cup finely chopped onions
3 Tbs finely chopped celery
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp ground mustard
1/2 tsp sage
1/4 tsp black pepper
2 lbs lean ground beef (90/10)
1 cup sour cream
1 cup low fat shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 cup chopped green olives


1 In a large bowl, combine the first 10 ingredients. Crumble beef over mixture and mix well.

2 On a large piece of tin foil, form the beef mixture into a rectangle about 1 inch thick. Spread sour cream all over the top. Sprinkle the cheddar and olives on top.

3 Roll up, jelly-roll style. Seal seam and ends. Place seam side down in a greased baking dish.

4 Bake, uncovered, at 350 degrees for about 45 minute or until the meat is no longer pink.

Servings: 8



Next time, instead of ROLLING it, I will probably do it a little differently. I had problems with all the "stuffing" oozing out. After spreading the mixture into the large regtangle, I will put the filling on one half of the ground beef mixture and then fold the other half over the top, sealing the edges and baking.

Aloha Honey Teriyaki Chicken

Ingredients
4 boneless, skinless, cubed chicken breasts
3 Tbsp. flour
2 Tbsp. canola oil
1/2 tsp. Garlic Garlic™
Seasoned Salt to taste
1/4 tsp. dried red pepper flakes or to taste
20 oz. can unsweetened pineapple tidbits with juice
2 tsp. cornstarch
2 Tbsp. Honey Teriyaki Sauce
1/2 cup shredded coconut
Prepared rice

Method
Coat chicken with flour; brown in oil for 3-5 minutes over medium heat until no longer pink.
Season with Garlic Garlic™, Seasoned Salt and pepper flakes.
Drain pineapple, reserving 1/2 cup juice.
Combine cornstarch and reserved pineapple juice until smooth.
Add to skillet.
Stir in Honey Teriyaki Sauce.
Simmer for 30 seconds or until thickened.
Add pineapple tidbits. Sprinkle with coconut; heat through.
Serve over rice.

Makes 4 servings.



I also added steamed broccoli to the finished product.

Next time I will omit the coconut (it didn't do anything for us) and will make sure that the broccoli is finished sooner so that I can mix it in with the chicken to soak up some of the flavors.

Overall very tasty!

Original recipe appox 10-11pts. but I need to recalculate once I get proper NI for TS products used. Pts would be lower without the coconut and by using less oil or cooking spray instead.
