Coat your chicken in the bread crumbs and layer them with 2 slice of ham and sprinkle of your cheese.Cover that with a additional cutlet. Bake for about 15 mins on 450 degrees. While your chicken is cooking measure your cream of mushroom soup, most cans are 2.5 servings. Place your in a small pot and add small amount of water to break the soup down just a little bit, this will make it easier to pour over chicken. When the 15 mins are up take the chicken from the oven and spoon over the cream of mushroom soup. it takes about 4 tables spoons worth to cover the top of your chicken. return it to bakeing for another 15 minutes.

I sauteed the string beans in a small sautee pan with the a sprinkle of the mbt chicken boullion for flavor. I also cut up the potatoes in small chunks seasoned them with garlic and onion powder and baked them along with the chicken.

I didnt realize how long the potatoes actually took to cook so plan on putting your potatoes in the the oven before your chicken.

In total your meal should fall between 465-500 calories depending on how big your cutlets are and how much soup you spoon over it.
