Chicken Cordon Bleu Bites Recipe

Recipesfull introduces to you: Chicken Recipes. (Chicken Cordon Bleu Bites Recipe). I created this recipe to try to duplicate some appetizers I had last summer from Stew Leonard's famous dairy retail store in Connecticut. They are great as appetizers or as a fun food for kids. I love to make them with bread crumbs seasoned with Parmesan cheese. Enjoy!
