Creamy Easy Chicken Cordon Bleu Without the Work image

Going through old recipes and finding all kinds of things ... One's I completely forgot about which can be fun. Well this is not completely my recipe. This came out of some small grocery store book years ago, which is long since gone. I did on search with Campbells and couldn't find it, so it's origin is history I guess. I still love it even though it has canned soup, which is something I don't like to use, but I still make this and it is always well liked. I have added some fresh herbs and I like to use a good smoked ham but it can't get much easier.
