Directions
Chicken Cordon Bleu Casserole for Two, An elegant two person meal Posting for safekeeping -from Cuisine at Home Layers of chicken, ham, broccoli, and Swiss cheese stuffed into a freshly toasted bread bowl topped with a creamy mustard sauce The sour dough roll IS the casserole dish Serve with a simple salad Not for the diet watchers , I made this by the recipe It came out fine It is more like 4 than 2 servings I wasn’t crazy about the dish, but I am not all that fond of thyme , I made bread this morning and while I was at it I made a couple of bread bowl loaves for this recipe It’s absolutely delicious and kind of decadent I followed right by the recipe and it came out beautifully Normally I wouldn’t have used heavy cream but I’ve been making ice cream and there was some in the fridge One of the things was the mustard sauce, it added to the texture and really rounded out the flavors well This makes two but they sure filling, DH and I could have shared one and been happy in this hot summer I should mention that the sweetening from the apple juice not only flavors but seems to lighten this dish All in all it’s terrific! 😀
