Chicken Cordon Bleu Biscuit Casserole
"This is very easy to put together and pretty tasty in my opinion! I came up with it when one night when I thought chicken cordon bleu sounded good, but only had cubed chicken on hand. You can use shredded cheese instead of sliced, add broccoli or more meat, use homemade biscuits... it's pretty forgiving. These are just the ingredients I happened to have on hand that day, but feel free to adjust to suit your tastes."

i see things that look like carrots and broccoli in some of the photographs. Nothing with those colors is in the recipe. Don't you like it the way you wrote it? You should use pictures of the recipe as written, or add notes to the recipe about what you changed.

This was delicious, with just a few tweaks. For convenience, I used a rotisserie chicken. I added some frozen broccoli and carrots, used crescent roll dough instead of biscuits, and used shredded Swiss. I also added just a touch of Dijon mustard to the sauce- it gave it a little flavor boost. It was a hit at dinner! -
My poor hubby came home late and discovered that the picky eaters had not saved him a bite of this casserole!! Super easy and yummy!

I added in some fresh asparagus during bake time, and this was a big hit. Just felt as though it could use a little more filling.

Excellent! I made it without any tweaks, snd my DH and daughter loved it! I will definitely make this again! Thanks for a terrific recipe! -
Great recipe, especially with all the adjustment that I could do with it! I actually had a lot leftover turkey, so instead of using chicken, turkey was my choice. Broccoli was another ingredient that I added into this recipe. I scooped the mixture including 3 cups of turkey and 3 cups broccoli florets into a 2-quart square baking dish. Took longer than 20 minutes to cook because I basically double the ingredients and broccoli needed more time to cook through too. Loved the flavor.

I have made this recipe 3 times now and it is a hit with my whole family! My father-in-law requested it for his birthday dinner. I've also recommended it to several online friends who all gave it rave reviews. I also used croissants instead of biscuits. A tip: don't roll up the croissants. They won't cook well on the bottom. Just leave them flat.
