This was AMAZING!! My family loved it. We usually make Chicken Cordon Bleu, but it's a lot of work, and can sometimes dry out. This was so moist and delicious. I don't think that we'll make the original again. The only thing that I did differently was to make a roux with the butter, flour and milk. Thanks for the great recipe!

I loved the flavor of this and so did everyone I served it to. (It was a good meal to bring to our friends who just had a baby.) Mine did not turn out creamy, but more brothy and you couldn't really detect the cheese. I'm not sure if it's because I used too much milk or the whole spelt flour. I'm sure it could be tweaked, and besides it was fine this way. Instead of rice/pasta I suggest trying it over Focaccia bread, yum!

This was just fabulous. I didn't use the celery or mushrooms and I used sliced deli ham that I just piled up and cut into squares. I also subbed cubed deli style swiss cheese. There was more than 8 oz but the sauce was so good I could have just sat there and eaten that with a spoon. Yum. I served it over noodles.
