Comments on: "Chicken Cordon Bleu Bake" (5)
OK, too funny, I just randomly made this last night! I was going to do chicken cordon bleu and didn’t feel like MAKING it, so I “cheated” and came up with something very similar! I did bread crumbs on top instead of stuffing, but same thing!
I think it would be even better this way! Yum! Thanks!
