Chicken Cordon Bleu Pasta

Honestly, I never knew there was ever a Cordon Bleu pasta and when I came across it, took a look at the recipe and went mmmmmmmmm........interesting. And what's best is that it is quite easy to make and while it's baking, one can run around the house and get some work done or like me.....get into the shower especially after a very long day.


And what's best? A hot meal after a good shower....and a quick one, ok? 

So here's the recipe for those pasta and cheese lovers....



Ingredients:- 
- Penne (enough to serve all at home)
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 230g cream cheese
- 1/2 tsp onion powder
- 1/2 tsp garlic salt
- 1 1/2 cup Emmental cheese or Swiss cheese as it's known 
- 2 chicken breasts, cooked and cut into strips 
- 3/4 cup bacon, cooked and chopped
- 3/4 cup diced ham
- breadcrumbs enough to sprinkle


1. Preheat oven to 180 degree Celsius
2. Cook pasta. Drain and set aside.
3. Heat cream cheese on low heat until melted. Stir in heavy cream. Stir until completely combined.
4. Add onion powder and garlic salt.
5. Stir 1 cup of cheese until smooth 
6. Oil the baking dish a little. In a 9x13, layer noodles, chicken, bacon and ham.
7. Pour sauce over the top.
8. Sprinkle top with 1/2 cup cheese and breadcrumbs.
9. Bake for about 15 mins

It's sooooooooo cheesy and it might be a little too much for some. For me, it was yum but I couldn't overtly have extras. The Swiss cheese is really ooooooooo..........
