Terri's birthday dinner

We recently celebrated Terri's birthday with a dinner with the whole family. We had a nice evening that started with bacon wrapped, Gouda stuffed dates and a bottle of Malbec. The main course was a chicken and spinach sausage and vegetable lasagna, homemade Caesar salad, and crispy garlic bread. After the meal, chocolate cupcakes, with a cream cheese center were served warm with a dollop of ice cream. Below is the recipe for the stuffed dates. Happy birthday Terri!

Bacon Wrapped, Gouda Stuffed Dates

30 Dates
10 Slices Applewood Smoked Bacon
4-5 oz. Smoked Gouda
30 toothpicks

Slice the Gouda into small pieces to stuff inside the dates. Cut each slice of bacon into thirds. Cut a slit in the dates, and stuff a piece of the Gouda inside each. Wrap each stuffed date with a piece of the sliced bacon, and secure the bacon with a toothpick. Arrange dates on a sheet pan and bake at 450 for 10-15 minutes or until bacon is cooked. Enjoy!
