    Every once in a while I get cooking cravings. This week I really wanted to make chicken rolls, but I didn’t feel like going to the store to pick up the ingredients. So, I did what my grandmother used to do, just look in the refrigerator and see what’s there. The result… chicken stuffed with prunes, rolled in bacon, with a mustard and mayo based sauce. I really liked how this recipe turned out. Try it!
