Recipe: Chicken Cordon Bleu Casserole

This recipe for a Chicken Cordon Bleu Casserole is a little twist on the classic Chicken Cordon Bleu that I adapted from a soft Pillsbury book a number of years ago…. I made only minor changes to the original recipe.

It’s very easy and something the whole family will enjoy. It is absolutely delicious!

Serve this with a salad and you have dinner done!
