I thought I was going to hate this, but I actually loved it. Who knew?

Am I the only one concerned about the sodium level in one serving of this dish? You are only supposed to have 1500mg/day. Whatever you eat the rest of the better not have sodium in it.

Chicken Cordon Bleu is always a family favorite but takes so much time. This quick and easy recipe is a prefect take on it and was a hit with my family. It does depend on the sauce and ham you use. Only use what you love.

This was decent enough for me to want to try it with homemade alfredo sauce. My family and I don't care for bottled...maybe I don't know what brand to use? Anyhow, I made it on a Boboli thin pizza crust, and used diced ham, which made it so easy. I'm going to look for a more pungent swiss (personal preference). I think with those tweaks I will like it better. Hubby and teen devoured it though!

This was so good and easy! Don't want to buy a whole bag of frozen chicken nuggets, just visit your local McDonald's.

Simple recipe, made from 'left-overs' of a session of making a tasty meal of those 'left-overs'. It is a very good way to prevent losing any money!

I dismissed this as kid food but it was fantastic! It really did have the flavor of chicken cordon bleu. Will definitely make again. I only pre-baked the crust for 3 minutes, then baked the assembled pizza for an additional 7 minutes and that was all it needed to get golden brown.
