You know, I've never heard of Chicken Cordon Bleu made with bacon...I've only used the traditional ham and Gruyere (or Swiss)....

But it might be a nice twist! If it were me, I probably would par-cook the bacon a bit in the micro or something...only because it would be a bit less greasy for one thing and also a little firmer in texture.
