TURKEY OR CHICKEN CORDON BLUE--WEIGHT WATCHERS

Turkey or Chicken Cordon Blue--Weight Watchers image

This is one that my daughter makes that is delicious. It came from an older Weight Watchers Cookbook. It has only 4 points per serving. Even you non-WW friends will like it. You may use chicken breasts that you pound out into a cutlet. I prefer the chicken to the turkey.
