chicken croissants=guaranteed man-catcher



this is my inspiration/where i got the recipe (my mom's website)

our first recipe! and it’s a good one! trey watched our dog sienna for a week and for payment, he asked for these. cory can eat up to six at a time. i normally will eat two per serving. they are AMAZING. and EASY! that’s right people, a quick and delicious recipe that the boys love. sorry i don’t have a picture yet. i usually don’t take pictures of my food…no instagram you see :) but i’ll start soon enough! the link above is the recipe from my mom’s food blog. i included it below with the few changes according to how i make it! you’ll see that most of my recipes are from mymother-the domestic goddess .

chicken croissants-this makes about 24 croissants for me

8 oz cream cheese
4 tbls melted butter
4 cups chicken, cooked and cubed
1 tsp salt
¼ tsp pepper
4-5 tbls milk
2 tbls green onion
3 cans pillsbury crescent rolls (mom’s recipe calls for 2, i usually can get 3 cans with the chicken mixture. also, i’ve tried the knock-off brands-don’t do it. they’re gross.)
melted butter
bread crumbs (you can also use crushed up ritz crackers)

chicken croissant gravy

1 or 2 cans cream of chicken soup
about a can of milk

preheat oven to 350 and spray cookie sheet. soften cream cheese, mix with melted butter, salt and pepper, and milk in/with mixer. then add chicken and onion. i usually use about 2 costco frozen chicken breast and thaw them in the microwave. dice them and boil it in water to cook quickly. i have also used about 2 tbls of yellow onion before too, cause i usually don’t have green onions on hand :)

 i roll my triangle of crescent dough into a ball and then flatten it into a circle and then put a spoonful of chicken cream cheese mixture onto it. i pinch all the edges together on top and then flip it upside down, so the seam is on the bottom. it looks like a rock, but of dough and chicken goodness.

bake at 350 for 20-25 minutes. meanwhile, mix soup and milk together in saucepan for a few minutes until heated. use as gravy!
.
that’s it! we usually serve it with stuffing and fruit or vegetables. happy cooking!
