To this delicious list, we are pleased to add this Ranch Style Chicken Cordon Bleu Casserole. There are just a few ingredients to this recipe and just as many steps, making it an ideal meal for your family tonight.

To Make This Ranch Style Chicken Cordon Bleu Casserole

• Place 1 lb. Virginia baked deli ham in a casserole dish.

• Top the ham with 8 oz of cheese, we used Provolone.

• Spread about 1/4 cup ranch salad dressing over cheese.

• Layer boneless chicken breasts ranch dressing.

• Top with Panko (coarse) breadcrumbs and spray with olive oil or non-stick coating.

• Bake at 375° F for 30 minutes.

If you have kids in the house, chances are good you have a bottle of ranch dressing in your fridge or pantry. It’s also a pretty safe bet you have some chicken of some kind or other. Ranch dressing and chicken go together just like peas and carrots. Surely, even Forest Gump would agree on that fact.  This Ranch Style Chicken Cordon Bleu Casserole is a new way to enjoy the two together. This recipe was dad tested and kid approved, across the board. Give it a try, you don’t have to be a kid to love this one! -Dan
