Chicken Cordon Bleu Casserole

I found this on copykat.com, posted by Ro-Ro. I cut the recipe in 1/2 and put in a sprayed 8×8 pan. I make croutons from stale bread or french bread, or you can use panko. I cook it in the toaster oven while it is so hot. This is incredibly tasty. Hope ya all like it as much as we do.
