**So, serious when I say CROWD PLEASER! We call them Chicken Pillows. The first recipe I got for these was way back before I was even married & it called for crushed stovetop instead of bread crumbs. Different taste, but still yummy. And, that recipe called them Chicken Crescent Rolls. (I'm sure most of you have seen this recipe or one similar, I see one similar in almost every church cookbook I look thru) I always double this because they make such fabulous leftovers! I know some people or recipes do a diluted cream of chicken soup mixture as the gravy. You can do that with a can of cream of chicken soup & 3/4 of a cup of milk. I like doing a chicken gravy instead. Either canned or a gravy mix packet. They are a little labor instensive. I like to do the chicken in the crockpot (I do all my chicken in the crockpot) & if you make the filling ahead of time & put it in the fridge it's much easier to work with. (My sister in law Kim gave me that tip!) So so yummy!!!! Enjoy!!

Okay, too funny. Did you have this on before I sent you that recipe? Great minds think alike! Next time I'll have to check your blog before I send you any to make sure I'm not sending duplicates.
Those look yummy! I think I see dinner .... :)
supercoolmom-Yes, I posted this before I posted the help one on my blog. ha ha
I know so many people who do these, ha ha
They are our FAVORITE!!
Carrie- Your kids will LOVE them, I promise!! They are so so yummy!! To make myself feel better I use 1/3 less fat cream cheese & reduced fat crescent rolls. But these are the BEST!!!
Kate- we made these tonight and they were a major hit! Thanks :) Scott was the only one who didn't care for them... he doesn't like stuffed anything! He eat the filling alone. Silly boy! I told my sister what we were eating and she said to send her the recipe.
Carrie!! I'm so so glad you tried & liked them!! Woo Hoo!! Yay, I love to hear that!!
I just got a new recipe from my SIL that is for Never Fail Crescent Rolls & she said that she used them for the Chicken Pillows. I'll post that recipe too!! Yum Yum!!
YUM! I'm making these tonight; they're in the oven. When I was done filling all the pillows, I wiped the bowl clean with my finger & licked it.
Oink.
You need to do a cooking show, or a book or something. I love the play by play with Avery at the end. Toooo cute!
Crystal, I'm SO glad that you made them!!
I made these last week and my kids DEVOURED THEM. Woohoo! A hit! Thanks.
Yum yummy! I make those too and they are like my fave! But I don't dip them in the margarine and bread crumbs...that will just enhance them all the more! Yay! Thanks!
