Creator advises and I agree: Chicken cordon bleu is a crowd favorite because of its delicious combination of ingred...

  • For the sauce:
  • 1 1/2 pound of cooked chicken meat, shredded (you can use leftovers or use rotisserie chicken, discard the bones)
  • 1 package of lean ham, sliced (do not use honey ham)
  • Swiss cheese slices (enough to cover the casserole)
  • 1 lemon
  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 1 can of evaporated milk (12 ounces) (or one can of cream of chicken soup) Or you could swap the chicken bouillon cube for 1/2 cup (120 Ml) of chicken broth if you want the sauce to be juicier.
  • You can thin the soup out with half a cup of milk or half and half.
  • butter or oil (to taste)
  • 1 chicken bouillon cube* (I prefer the chicken stock that comes in a paste) (a nice teaspoon dollop would do)
  • 2 tablespoons of Dijon Mustard (this is optional, it is good, but changes the whole recipe)
  • 1 teaspoon of ground nutmeg (Only if you like nutmeg, overpowering to me)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • For the topping:
  • 2 cups of breadcrumbs
  • 1 ounce of butter (30 gr)
  • 1 teaspoon of onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon of garlic powder
  • 2 teaspoons of dried basil
  • 1 teaspoon of white grounded pepper

Enjoy a basic french toast, this indulgent overnight baked cream cheese french toast casserole is certainly a revel...

  • 1 (12-14 ounce) loaf french bread, sourdough bread, or challah (1)
  • 8 ounces (224g) brick-style cream cheese, softened to room temperature (2)
  • 2 Tablespoons (15g) confectioners' sugar (don't leave it out, trust me)
  • 3 teaspoons (15ml) vanilla extract, divided
  • 8 large Eggland's Best eggs
  • 2 and 1/4 cups (540ml) whole milk
  • 3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2/3 cup (133g) packed light brown sugar
  • 1/3 cup (69g) packed light brown sugar
  • 1/3 cup (42g) all-purpose flour (spoon & leveled)
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 6 Tablespoons (86g) unsalted butter, cold and cubed
  • Optional: fresh fruit, maple syrup, and/or confectioners' sugar for topping
  • Day-old, crusty bread is perfect for french toast casseroles. I prefer challah bread. I slice it up and let it sit out all day.
  • Since the cream cheese is only mixed with a little sugar and vanilla, make sure you are using quality cream cheese that tastes good. I love full-fat Philadelphia brand brick-style cream cheese for this dish.
