This is another recipe from Gina’s Weight Watcher Recipes and Brett and I both loved it! Surprisingly they are really quick and easy to make! It’s definitely going on our list of favorites and I’ll be rotating it into the dinner menu more often! Gina also has a recipe for Broccoli and Cheese Stuffed Chicken that I’m anxious to try!
*this is Gina’s picture of her finished Cordon Bleu…mine wasn’t as pretty, but still delish!
Chicken Cordon Bleu
Gina’s Weight Watcher RecipesMakes: 12 pieces • Time: 40 minutes • Points: 4 ww points each
4 chicken breast halves
2 egg
1 tbsp water
3/4 cup seasoned breadcrumbs
12 slices thin deli ham
12 slices reduced fat Swiss cheese (I used Sargento)
salt
spray oil
toothpicksPreheat oven to 350°.
Slice chicken breast halves into thin cutlets. I usually get 3 thin cutlets out of one breast half. Pound them to make them thinner if you wish. This helps when you wrap the cutlets
Cut each slice of cheese into squares and stack on top of each other. Place a slice of ham on top of the chicken, top with cheese and wrap chicken around to completely cover cheese, using toothpicks to secure. (Make sure no holes so cheese doesn’t leak out) Season with a little salt.
Dip chicken into egg wash, then breadcrumbs
Spray cookie sheet with oil and place chicken on cookie sheet. Lightly spray chicken with oil and bake about 25 minutes, until cooked.

How did I miss that you have a food blog! I am pretty excited to look around on it as we have very similar tastes when it comes to cuisine. Saw candy corn kisses yesterday and thought of you!
