Made as a bonus for Aus/NZ Swap #14. We spent a holiday in Normandy a few years ago, and camembert became one of our favorite French cheeses (of 365, as de Gaulle said !) I had nice thick chicken breasts, but became acutely aware that "pockets" were not my strong suite ! The outcome wasn't too pretty, but it was surely tasty ! Thanks, Sonya !

I live in Keilor Downs, Victoria in Australia. I am a receptionist in Melbourne. My favorite cook books are anything Weight Watchers or Simply 2 good 2 be true also any muffin or scone cook books. I love cooking easy stuff but I love a challange ocasionaly on the weekends when i have a bit more time. My pet peeve is how much capsicum/bell peppers are in recipes now as i am elergic to them.
