Chicken Bundles

This recipe is from Nicole & my mom, and it's a favorite among all my siblings. I've added my own notes.

Chicken Bundles
Recipe from Karen Abreu

8oz cream cheese (softened)
2 TBS milk
Chopped onion to taste (about 1 to 2 TBS) OR fresh chopped chives
Salt and Pepper to taste
4 chicken breasts cooked and diced
3 cans crescent rolls

IF you want them breaded:
Butter melted  (approx. ½ cube)
Progresso Italian Style Bread Crumbs

·         Combine cream cheese, milk, onion, salt and pepper in bowl.  Add diced chicken. 
·         Spread out crescent rolls.  Pinch two triangles together, keeping it in rectangle form.  Put spoon of chicken mixture in the middle and roll. Fold ends and pinch together.
·         IF you like them breaded, dip in melted butter and bread crumbs.
·         Bake on cookie sheet @ 325 for 12 minutes.  (I baked mine for aprox. 22  minutes or until golden brown. You don’t want them doughy.)
·         Makes 12 bundles.

Make your own favorite style of chicken gravy. One included below. I like things easy, so I buy the chicken gravy packets where you just add water. 

Gravy:
2 cups chicken broth
¼ cup butter
¼ cup flour
1/8 tsp salt  1/8 tsp butter
¼ cup milk
Cook until thick then add parsley  (a couple tsp)
*Heat, DON’T BOIL
