The last roll up I tried was absolutely delicious. This recipe involves chicken and lots of cheese. Sounds like the perfect combo! And with my shredded chicken already cooked, it looked like an easy after work meal to make.

Chicken Roll Ups

Ingredients:

• 1 pkg cream cheese (8oz)
• 1 pkg crescent rolls (6 ct) (note, you can also use TWO packages of regular sized crescents)
• 2 shredded, cooked chicken breasts
• 1.5 C grated chedder cheese
• 1 C grated Monterey Jack
• 1/4 t salt
• 1/4 t pepper
• bread crumbs
• 1/4 stick melted butter

Directions:

Combine chicken, cheeses, salt and pepper. Spoon onto crescents. Roll them up making sure they are sealed around the chicken mixture. Brush tops with butter and sprinkle with bread crumbs. Bake at 350 for 20-25 minutes. To reheat, just place in a 325 degree oven for 15 minutes.

Conclusion: My thoughts…meh. It was a convenient meal but didn’t have much taste. I even added garlic salt to try and spice it up. However, it was just a little too blah for me. Maybe mincing some garlic or adding more seasoning would have helped these roll ups out. My husband also only found them acceptable. Nothing to drool over. I would highly recommend using the big crescent rolls and those made by Pillsbury. They worked well rolling up the chicken mix.
