Chicken Cordon Bleu My Way


Ingredients
4-5 Boneless skinless chicken breasts
4-5 slices of Ham (Your preference)
8-10 Swiss Cheese (Number = Cover breasts twice 8-10 pieces)
1 Can of Cream of Mushroom soup
1 Can sliced Mushrooms


-Pound chicken breasts till flat 3/8 in to 1/2 inch in plastic bag or sheet
-Roll one slice Ham and one slice Swiss inside chicken breast. 
(Roll into spiral like sheets of paper. Just get it into a circle. No perfection needed)
-Place each into 13x9 Pirex pan outside edge of roll down.
-Cover breast roll tops with second piece of cheese.
-Pour Can of Cream of Mushroom soup over each breast. 
( Mix concentrated soup with half amount of water or milk than instructions state for thicker gravy.)
-Place sliced mushrooms over breasts. pack all you can on


Bake @ 350 degrees 45 mins or untill chicken turns white and is done.
I bast every 10 mins during cooking time.


Bast with gravy around breasts poured back onto breasts.
  (one last pice of cheese onto or even half a slice looks great.


Serve on bed of Rice. With vegetables to your tastes.


Enjoy

Family recipe

Potato Kielbasa Stir Fry with Bacon 
by J.F. Barnes


Needed ingredients
1-lb Bacon
4 to 6 potatoes
3 stalks Broccoli
Head of Cauliflower
Polska Kielbasa sausage


1. Fry 1 lbs of Bacon in electric skillet ( I find electric skillets work best but up to you)
2. Remove Bacon and set aside leave bacon grease in pan.
3. Chop 4-6 small potatoes into 1/2 inch squares
4. Add potatoes, Cover and cook at about 350 degrees for 10 mins stirring occasionally.
5. Add to top of potatoes 3 stalks of Broccoli ( chop to flowerets ) if adding stalk chop to 1/2 squares.
6. Add one head Cauliflower ( chop to size of Broccoli ) about the size of a floret. also on top of potatoes.
7. Slice one Polska Kielbasa and add on top.
8. Cover and let steam/cook for about 5 mins.
9. Stir entire mixture and cook till broccoli and cauliflower is done to taste.
10 Crumble and add in bacon, give it a good stir.
Healthier Diet- remove bacon or bacon grease and use cooking spray.
Slightly lighter- Remove bacon grease after cooking bacon and use oil or spray.
