Chicken Pillows

Mom’s recipe



3 c. cooked, cubed chicken
8 oz. cream cheese
½ tsp. Garlic Powder (more or less to your taste)
1 tsp. Onion Powder or 1 Tbl. Minced onion (more or less to your taste)
1 Tbl. Dried Parsley
3 cans Pillsbury Crescent Rolls (or store brand)

Mix all ingredients in a bowl (it’s easiest if you use a blender or hand mixer because it will shred up the chicken for you). Roll out crescent rolls and separate each triangle. Slightly stretch each triangle to accommodate filling. Add about 1 Tbl. Of filling to each triangle and fold up each corner to make a “pillow.” Make sure filling is completely enclosed and roll is sealed. Bake as directed on the crescent package.

*** You can also make a sauce of 1 can Cream of chicken soup with ¾ can of milk to pour over pillows as they are served.

*** You can steam 2 cups of broccoli until tender, and then add ½ cup shredded cheese and ¼ cup of sour cream to the filling mixture. You will need more rolls though as this will increase the filling size.
