CHICKEN CORDON BLEU
CASSEROLE
Often a rotisserie chicken or two can make a fantastic supper. I had two cooked chickens on hand for this dinner, but only used 1 cup of cooked, diced chicken from the second chicken. This is a particularly easy, delicious and quick recipe with the familiar flavors of Chicken Cordon Bleu when time and energy is a factor, as happens to many of us from time to time. Add a veggie or even add cooked mushrooms or asparagus or green beans as a side and you're good to go, so to speak. Could not be easier!
