Chicken Cordon Bleu Recipe
Chicken Cordon Bleu is thin slices of chicken breast stuffed with cheese and ham and you can actually make it in the slow cooker or crockpot!
Cordon Bleu is French for "blue ribbon". Supposedly blue ribbons were handed out for culinary excellence back in the days.
I generally do not like to use condensed soups because they're very high in sodium. But low sodium ones are available now.
