How To Make Chicken Cordon Bleu Meatloaf:
Step 1: Preheat Oven
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Step 2: Combine Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, breadcrumbs, Parmesan, milk, egg, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until just combined.
Step 3: Shape Meatloaf
Place the chicken mixture on parchment paper and flatten into a rectangle about 1/2 to 3/4 inch thick.
Step 4: Layer Ingredients
Evenly layer the Swiss cheese and ham slices on top, leaving a small border around the edges.
Step 5: Roll Meatloaf
Carefully roll the meatloaf from one short end to the other, using the parchment paper to guide it.

Transfer the rolled meatloaf to a greased baking dish, seam-side down. Brush the top with Dijon mustard and sprinkle with mozzarella cheese. Bake 45–50 minutes, until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the cheese is golden and bubbly.
Step 7: Let Rest
Allow the meatloaf to rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
