Chicken Bundles

So I'm on a roll with quick and easy chicken meals :)  For several reasons - 1) Who doesn't love a quick and easy meal! 2) Sometimes it's ok to use some prepackaged ingredients rather than make all your own and 3) Chicken was on sale recently so we've got lots!
Last week I shared a chicken and biscuit casserole with you.  This week, I'm sharing another simple chicken dish - chicken bundles!  These literally take just minutes to throw together so are great for a meal after running around all day or after sports practice for kids.
I hope you enjoy them!

Chicken Bundles
Recipe Adapted from Quick and Easy Dinner

Ingredients:
  • 4 oz cream cheese
  • 2 chicken breasts (what I used - approx 1.5 lbs) or 1 13 oz can chicken
  • 1/4 tsp parsley
  • 1 can Pillsbury Crescent rolls
  • 1 TBSP dried minced onion
Directions:
Combine the cream cheese, chicken, parsley, and onion and mix well.  I totally used my mixer for this and let it do the stirring :)

Open your crescent rolls, and carefully unroll them.  Do not divide into triangles, but keep every two together so you have a square/rectangle of dough. 
Using a spoon (or your hand), scoop some of the chicken/cream cheese mixture into the middle of your square of crescent dough.  Turn the corners up and around the chicken mixture, folding into the center until you make a little bundle.  Pat the edges together so they stick together.
Repeat 3 times.


Bake on a cookie sheet (greased or use a silicone baking mat) for 15-20 minutes at 375 degrees until the crescent dough is lightly browned.
Serve warm and enjoy!
