more dance dares

I finally had a chance to do Ellen's dance dare.  It really is so much fun.  We were all home for Easter and I decided to dance behind Dad in our bar.  He literally had no idea, and still didn't have an idea until Taylor showed him the video.  I didn't have much room!

I have to post a couple of dance dares that had me laughing so hard.

You all have got to try this over the weekend!  Please share your video with us.  Happy Friday!

pico de gallo

I made The Pioneer Woman's pico de gallo last week and it was AMAZING!  The recipe was in my cookbook, but she also has it posted on her blog.  Her tip for successful pico de gallo is to have equal amounts of ingredients (onions, tomatoes, and cilantro)...the jalapeno peppers do not have to be equal.  Just add as little or as much as you want.  I was a little conservative with it because Clay doesn't like spicy things.

pico de gallo
yellow or red onions
roma tomatoes (slightly underripe is fine)
cilantro
jalapenos
lime
salt

dice up the onions, tomatoes, and cilantro (equal parts).
slice 1 or 2 jalapenos in half (scrape out the seeds with a spoon.  leave the seeds in if you like a little spice. dice the jalapeno and add it to the other ingredients.  dump all four ingredients into a bowl.  slice a lime in half and squeeze the juice from the lime into the bowl.  sprinkle with salt and stir together.  taste and adjust seasonings.  *be sure to taste it with chips

I had a chance to wear my new pair of dv by dolce vita sandals over the weekend.  I'm obsessed!  They are so comfortable, and instantly glam up any outfit.

dv by dolce vita archer

I bought mine at Nordstrom, but you can also find them at piperlime (free shipping and free returns).  I would order 1/2 size down.  I bought an 8, but I usually wear an 8 1/2.  They come in 5 other colors, and I'm tempted to buy the gold. 

Look who else is sporting the dv archer sandal in black...

bacon and boursin stuffed chicken

The boursin and bacon stuffed chicken I found on So Delushious was a success!  It was so good and tasted gourmet.   

I fell in love with boursin cheese at a dinner party two years ago.  I literally ate the whole cheese plate.  So I really couldn't contain my excitement when I found this recipe.  You can find Boursin cheese at most grocery stores.  Wal-mart even has it!  You can find it in the gourmet cheese section of the grocery store (not by the shredded cheeses).  Boursin is usually located by the laughing cow or babybel cheese.

Ingredients:
2 large boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 pckg. Boursin cheese (Note: I used the herb and garlic flavor. You can also use a packed herb goat cheese.)
4 slices thickly cut bacon
4 slices prosciutto
1/2 lemon, juiced
Salt and pepper
1 c. chicken stock
10-12 cherry tomatoes

Directions:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Lightly oil the bottom of a deep oven pan, like a rectangular or square cake pan. Place one piece of the chicken breast on top of a piece of Saran wrap. Cover with another piece and gently beat it with the rounded end of a metal ladle or just a meat tenderizer.  Do this until the chicken breast is large and fairly thin.  Generously spread the boursin cheese over the chicken breast.  Lay 2 slices of bacon on the chicken breast.  Roll from the short side in. Wrap two pieces of prosciutto around each chicken roll, making sure not to overlap too much. Place into lightly greased pan. Season with lemon, salt and pepper.  Pour chicken stock into bottom of the pan, toss in cherry tomatoes. Bake on middle rack for 55 minutes.  Make sure to spoon juice onto tops of chicken every 10-15 minutes or so. Slice diagonally and serve with sautéed veggies.
