Cheesy Chicken Bacon Bombs!

That’s right. I did it. I made something with the words, “cheesy” “bacon” and “bombs” and honestly, they are pretty dang healthy! I was waiting for Eric to get back from the store with ingredients for another recipe I was working on the other day. Pepper was asleep, and I was itching to cook. So I opened up the fridge and realized I had some leftover shredded chicken and bacon that needed to be used up. The rest is history.

CHEESY CHICKEN BACON BOMBS WERE BORN!

I honestly was thinking they would be a little dry the first time around, and that I would have to play with the recipe a little bit. No. WRONG. If you like cheese, bacon, chicken, and delicious food. Literally go run to your nearest market for these ingredients, and if you have people in your household who are not worried about eating their portion size. DOUBLE THE RECIPE. They will fly out of the muffin tin. Like, for real, they won’t even make it to a serving plate.

I normally don’t toot my own horn this much, but I am helping you. New boyfriend? Make these. He will marry you. I promise. You’re welcome.

    Hey Star! Just made these and they were delicious! I made a double batch for just the 2 of us !
    Do they freeze well?

  2. These were AMAZING!! I didn’t read the recipe very closely, so I accidentally bought the jumbo biscuits, so I split them in half and rolled. Worked great!!!

    1. Hi Nicole. The cheese I use is Cheddar made with 2% milk. It actually doesn’t say 50% or 75% reduced fat on any of the packages I purchase. If I had to take a guess I would say 50% reduced fat. I hope that helps and I hope you enjoy!

    I’m confused on how 4 biscuits makes 10 bombs. Also it says 3pts per bomb but says this makes 4 servings at the top of the recipe.

    So I made these and I thought “great, everyone is dieting in our house so there will be leftovers.” Turns out everyone dieting didn’t make a difference because my family plowed through these and asked why I didn’t make more. Lol Thank goodness they were low points though… can’t deny that I ate several as well. Thanks for so many great meals that my family and I love!

  11. This looks delicious! But… I’m wondering if there may be a substitute I could make for the cottage cheese? I have a real aversion to it, but everything about this sounds amazing! LOL

  13. I just put these in the oven and can’t wait to eat! Sadly, I didn’t have bacon so I’ll have to make them again.
