You’ve gotta try this combo, it’s a game changer! 5 stars!

This bacon-wrapped chicken cordon bleu meatloaf is a comforting twist on a classic dish that has long been a favorite in Midwest kitchens. The origins of cordon bleu lie in the delightful combination of ham and cheese stuffed inside chicken, but I’ve taken this traditional idea and wrapped it all up in a homestyle meatloaf, then added bacon for a little something extra. The result is a hearty, flavorful dish that brings warmth to any dinner table, reminiscent of family gatherings and Sunday suppers.

This dish pairs beautifully with creamy mashed potatoes for that perfect balance of textures. Steamed green beans or roasted Brussels sprouts add a nice touch of green and freshness to your plate. For a truly nostalgic experience, serve it with a classic Jell-O salad or some homemade dinner rolls, and finish the meal with a slice of apple pie.
