Chicken cordon bleu pasta

Here is a recipe I concocted last night. I made it with more of an Italian influence. It is super rich! I think I need a fast after eating this :)

1 box penne

Olive oil 

Salt

1/2 C Ham chopped

1/2 C bacon crumbled

2 cooked chicken breasts chopped

8oz cream cheese

2 C heavy cream

2 C Italian style cheese (provolone, gruyere, Swiss etc)

Garlic powder

Salt

Pepper

Season salt

Italian style Panko bread crumbs

Melted butter 

Preheat Oven to 350

Grease a 9x13 casserole dish

Prepare Penne to al dente 

While pasta is boiling, prep cooked chicken into strips, crumble bacon, chop ham

Drain pasta, add a little evoo or reserved pasta water to keep pasta moist 

Mix meats with pasta and pour into Casserole dish

Melt a brick of cream cheese, with cream, add in spices of choice. I used salt, pepper, garlic powder and season salt. Melt In 1 cup of cheese.

Pour over pasta

Add 1 cup cheese to top

Add Italian style bread crumbs 

Add a little melted butter to coat bread crumbs

Bake at 350 for 20 minutes until desired crispness on top.
