Chicken Cordon Bleu Casserole

Another dish born out of necessity. I was asked to take a meal over to a couple at church who recently had a baby. I figured I could make a casserole and split it between two pans so I'd have some for me and hubby as well. I thought it would be the perfect opportunity to make chicken and stuffing casserole so I could finally repost it with a picture. Sadly, as I went to put it together I discovered I was out of sour cream. That's bad news; sour cream is staple in our household. I had to think up something else. I have a recipe for easy chicken cordon bleu. It uses a lot of the same ingredients as the chicken and stuffing and a few more that I just happened to have sitting around. Seriously, I had Swiss cheese, but no sour cream? Go figure. I decided to make that, just in a casserole form instead. It turned out great.

Chicken Cordon Bleu Casserole

  • 4 uncooked chicken breasts, chopped into 1 inch cubes
  • 1 1/2 cups cubed ham (about 1/2 inch cubes)
  • 1 can cream of chicken soup
  • 1 tablespoon spicy brown mustard or Dijon mustard
  • 1 cup shredded Swiss cheese
  • 1 Box Chicken Stuffing Mix

Prepare stuffing according to package directions. Combine together chicken, ham, cream of chicken soup, mustard and Swiss cheese. Pour chicken mixture into a casserole dish. Top with prepared stuffing. Bake for 40-50 minutes until bubbly and chicken is cooked through.

  4. I used to make Cordon Bleu all the time and just got tired of pounding out the chicken and rolling it, etc. This looks like a great way to get the rich flavors without all of the fuss. Fantastic!

    Stopping by (a little late) from Thriving on Thursday. Thanks for sharing this!

I'm sorry, but I've turned word verification on again. I hate trying to decipher the words just as much as anyone, but I'm getting way too much spam. I tried doing comment moderation as people suggested but the number or spam comments I had to sift through was ridiculous. I appreciate your comments and didn't want them to get lost among the spam. Hopefully, I can reduce the amount of spam and turn the word verification off soon.
