National Chicken Cordon Bleu Day is annually observed on April 4.  This day is all about a special dish combining chicken, ham and cheese.  The French term Cordon Bleu is translated as "Blue Ribbon".  The earliest recipe known was in a March 1964 printing of the Cincinnati Enquirer by the Cincinnati Gourmet, Stanley Demos.  Despite some misconceptions, Chicken Cordon Bleu is an American dish.  This dish is a take on the popular Veal Cordon Bleu.  Tonite you'll sample:
