Cheddar Cheese & Bacon Topped Baked Chicken
"I found the original recipe posted by ~Bekah~ on a now defunct recipe site.This has been made few times and my SO and I thought it was very good. But you know how some people can't leave a recipe alone and well, I'm one of those people. ;) So I decided to post it here with the " tweaks " I did. Please feel free to add more or less seasonings according to yours and your families tastes. Posted to " ZAAZ " on 4/16/18. " Keep Smiling :)"
