These are very good. You can also make them smaller using the "triangle" instead of the "square" and have as an appetizer instead of the main course.

SAVORY CHICKEN CRESCENT BUNDLES

This recipe was given to me years ago by a dear friend, and it's been a favorite ever since. It makes four huge squares, but if you need more, it's really easy to double the recipe. For the kids, just use individual crescents and roll them up with the mixture inside. Kids love to pick them up and eat them like a little...
