Flashback Friday / Easy Swiss Cordon Bleu Bake


I had not made this recipe since my mother's birthday in 2013.
Recently we had friends over for lunch on a weekend, and I decided that this dish was an easy no fuss recipe for me to make the day before and store in the refrigerator so all I had to do is turn the oven on about 45 minutes before they were to arrive.  I put on a pot of rice, cooked a side of Maple Glazed Carrots, the salad was ready in Fridge as was dessert. That left me the morning to relax and enjoy without feeling stressed.  According to some of the comments in the original recipe by people that tried the recipe say it is a hit with their families. I hope you give it a try and you and your family enjoy it too.

  4. Pour the sauce in a 9x13 pan.
