Time 45m

Yield 16 slices, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 (10 ounce) can white chicken meat, drained and flaked
1/2 cup red bell pepper, chopped
1 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and well drained
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese, I use mild
1/3 cup mayonnaise
1 teaspoon lemon zest
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
2 (8 ounce) packages refrigerated crescent dinner rolls

Steps:

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a 2 Qt bowl, flake chicken until finely shredded. Chop bell pepper. Add to chicken along with spinach, cheese, mayonnaise, lemon zest, salt and nutmeg; mix well.
2. Unroll crescent dough; separate into 16 triangles. Arrange triangles in circle on 13" round baking pan with wide ends of triangles overlapping in the center and points toward the outside.
3. Using a spoon/medium cookie dough scoop, scoop chicken mixture evenly onto widest end of each triangle. Bring outside points of triangles up over filling and tuck under wide ends of dough at center of ring. ~~~~Filling will not be completely covered~~~~~~~~~.
If making individual rolls, take pointed end up over filling and tuck under wide end, bring the sides up to form a pouch. Reduce cooking time by 5 minutes.
4. Bake 20-25 mins or until golden brown.
