Enjoy more time with your family with this simple, quick, spiced up canned cranberry sauce recipe and easy dinner idea.
The holiday season is in full swing! I don’t know about you, but the month of November sure did fly on by! It felt like we just finished taking down our harvest decor, and now it is time for all this Christmas.
If you are like us, chances are you are pressed for time just a wee bit more this season. Between making sure you check off your shopping lists, and nail down the perfect cookie recipe for Santa, things like dinner time meals can become overwhelming.
But, rather than turning to takeout more often than not, we have been relying on some easy to prepare meal starters like Barber Foods Cordon Bleu Stuffed Chicken Breasts.
I typically purchase my Barber Foods Cordon Bleu Stuffed Chicken Breasts at Stop & Shop which is my nearest supermarket. They have everything I need for weeknight meals, holiday musts, and more! Love shopping there since the prices are always favorable.
You can find Barber Foods Chicken products in the frozen chicken aisle. They have a Raw and a Fully Cooked version of most of their popular flavors. If you are feeding a crowd, they also have larger sized boxes which are helpful.
Easy Chicken Dinner Idea
Barber Foods Cordon Bleu Stuffed Chicken Breasts are so easy to prepare and bake! They take less than a from-scratch chicken dinner and contain the best flavors around!
I love how easy it is to add the raw chicken breasts to a baking sheet and then put them into the oven at 375 degrees f. for less than 45 minutes! Times may vary depending on the amount you are cooking, but I assure you that in no time you will have a fantastic chicken meal.
What to pair with Cordon Bleu Stuffed Chicken Breasts
These easy, hand-stuffed, quality Cordon Bleu Stuffed Chicken Breasts go perfectly with foods like instant mashed potatoes, rice pilaf, and cranberry sauce! Yes, we are in full on holiday mode.
I love cooking from scratch, but this month I am pressed for time so instant mashed potatoes, and canned cranberry sauce make the perfect sides for our family.
The beauty of these instant side dishes is that you can doctor them up to be even tastier. By adding fresh herbs and butter to instant mashed potatoes, you can transform, and enrich the taste quickly.

I will make cranberry sauce the next time I make cordon bleu. That sure sounds like a delicious sauce to pair with a chicken dish.
I’ve actually never tried canned cranberry sauce. My Mom always made a different version when I was growing up and I kind of stuck with it. I’ll have to try this one!
This whole meal sounds really delicious and easy. I love cranberries. Can’t wait to try your sauce.
I absolutely adore and love fresh cranberries. I have never made a preserve with them, but ready to try.
Everything looks amazing. I’m going to have to make this for the holidays. We usually always have cranberry sauce.
I love stuffed chicken breasts but never have the time to make them from scratch. These are perfect for an easy dinner. I can’t believe that Christmas is just 3 weeks away.
I love how only with few ingredients you made a fancy and delicious dinner! Yum!
We eat stuffed chicken breasts all the type but with our busy schedules, I never have the time to make them from scratch. This is such a simple way to make them! Love the cranberry sauce.
Oh yum! This looks so good and easy to make! I must try!
I have real cranberries sitting in the fridge right now. I could try these spices with them. Love the idea of the chicken cordon bleu paired with this.
Try adding a little amaretto and chopped slivered almonds to canned whole cranberry sauce. Bring to a boil and then put in bowl and chill. YUM!
