Tips and Notes
- Feel free to swap the Swiss cheese in this recipe for another that you like better. Swiss cheese is the traditional choice here, but this chicken cordon bleu casserole would also taste great with mozzarella, provolone, or a mild cheddar.
- This is a great recipe for using up leftover cooked chicken and holiday ham. I like to get my cooked chicken from a rotisserie chicken. It makes things easier on busy nights!
- Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for 4-5 days. Reheat small portions in the microwave before serving.
What to Serve with Chicken Cordon Bleu Casserole
Any of your favorite veggies would taste great with this easy dinner. I love to serve it with either a green salad, roasted broccoli, garlic parmesan roasted asparagus, or Instant Pot Glazed Carrots.
Freezer Option
This Chicken Cordon Bleu Casserole makes a great freezer meal. Prepare as directed but do not add the crushed crackers to the top and do not bake it. If you add the crackers to the top before freezing the casserole, they will get mushy during the thawing process.
Add the prepared casserole to a freezer safe container (I like to use a disposable lasagna pan) then cover the casserole with both plastic wrap and aluminum foil. Freeze for up to 4 months. Thaw the casserole overnight in the fridge, and right before baking add the crushed crackers on top. Bake as directed.
