Chicken Cordon Bleu Bundles

 

 

This is a very simple way to make a classic masterpiece, but as chicken cordon bleu bundles! Serve with roasted red potatoes and my lemon-lime jell-o for a great combo of flavor!

 

 

They are easy to make and easy to get the kids to eat.

 

Does Chicken Cordon Bleu Have Bleu Cheese?

No, chicken cordon bleu is not made with bleu cheese.

Chicken cordon bleu is made with Swiss cheese.

The name actually means “Blue Ribbon” chicken.

Do You Eat Chicken Cordon Bleu With Gravy?

Chicken Cordon Bleu can be served with a cream sauce.

Cream sauce is not the same as gravy.

Can Chicken Cordon Bleu Be Frozen?

Chicken cordon bleu can be frozen before or after baking.

Prepare up to the point of baking, wrap well in plastic or cover in foil and freeze.

Or, bake cordon bleu, let it cool and place in freezer bags in the freezer, to be reheated later.
