After 40 minutes take the chicken out of the hot water ( let it cool down) and shred.

In a medium size bowl mix

Cheese, Salt, Pepper, Cream Cheese, Broccoli; Chicken

Spoon onto crescents.

    These sound yummy! Thank you!

  • Brandy

    I am loving your recipes, but serving sizes listed would be helpful for me. Iā€™m feeding a family of 6 here and am almost positive, no matter how much I shred the chicken, 1-2 breasts wouldnā€™t do the job šŸ™‚ I used 4 good sized ones.

  • kei

    Looks so yummy, and I would like to try that chicken filling with scones!

  • Carol

    Canā€™t wait to make thisā€“your Dad wasw justtelling me he loves it.

  • Jennifer G

    This looks yummy. How many crescents do you use in each roll? I would love to try this recipe.

    • Budget Savvy Diva

      One Crescent for Each šŸ™‚

  • Jennifer Blackham

    I love making things ahead and freezing them. Do you freeze them before baking, or bake then freeZe and reheat?

    • Budget Savvy Diva

      I actually fully cook them then I cook them at 275 in the oven till they are warm. You can also put them on a cookie pan and stick them in the freezer for 30 minutes ( if uncooked). Then bake them when you want. I would let them de-frost though before baking. I hope that helps.

  • VIcki

    I am thinking of using rotessiere (?) chicken !! do you serve it with any gravy, sauce?

    • Budget Savvy Diva

      That chicken will work. I find these are rich enough without a sauce.

  • Kelli

    Made these! I loved them and boyfriend loved them!

  • brooke

    can you use boneless skinless or dose it have to be bone in?

    • Budget Savvy Diva

      You can use boneless

  • Lauren

    Has anyone tried using canned chicken? I know the ā€œreal stuffā€ is probably better, but it seems like I am always trying to cook on a very tiny bit of open schedule so really good quick dinners is what I need. I am so tired of fast food and so is my waistline.

    • Melody Elzy

      Seems to me you could get you one of the rotisserie chickens and that would workā€¦not to mention it would be a little healthier than canned AND have more flavor! JMHO

  • Lauren

    Okay, please forgive me for asking but Iā€™m kind of new to cooking! Once the water is boiled and Iā€™m ready to put the chicken in do I turn the heat down? If so, how much do I turn it down? Or do I keep it up? Thank you!

    • Budget Savvy Diva

      You turn the heat to medium and cover it. The water should be hot but not boiling.

  • Dania

    Iā€™m going to make this without the cream cheese. Iā€™m really not a fan. And I donā€™t like ricotta either. Do you think it will work without that cheese? If not, what should I substitute for the cream cheese?

    • Budget Savvy Diva

      Hmm the cheese helps it a lot ā€¦ Is there another cheese you like ? Cheddar would be nice or a mozzarella

      • Dania

        I love me some cheddar for sure! I will definitely add that component. Maybe some mozzarella. Iā€™m thinking that maybe strained greek yogurt would make it creamy with less fat?

  • Dania

    Also, one last question: How do these microwave? Iā€™m all set to make them tomorrow night, but if Iā€™m making so many, I want to be sure that theyā€™ll microwave well when I take them to work. Thanks for your help!

  • Karyn

    Ok I am confused (it doesnā€™t take much) LOL But HOW do you make these with just one littel crescent triangle? LOL HEELP!

  • Melanie

    I calculated the recipe on a site with a recipe builder and I figured the recipe to have 16 servings since there are 8 crescent rolls in each package. It gave me the nutrient facts to lead to a 6 points plus value (via the Weight Watchers program) per roll. Is this a correct calculation?

  • Annette

    I donā€™t see why canned chicken would be unhealthyā€¦ sodium??? Iā€™m gonna try thee with my home canned chicken breast.

  • Katelyn D.

    easy and neato!

  • Karla R

    These look good! Canā€™t wait to try them!
