A-Day Snacks - Chicken Salad Crescents


It's Football Friday!  I can't believe that it is football time again.  It seems like only yesterday that we were watching the National Championship game.  Both Auburn and Alabama have their spring games tomorrow.  I know everyone is itching to get back to the stadium and tailgate with friends and family.

These chicken salad crescents are the perfect bite size treat for Saturday's scrimmage.  We made some with cheddar cheese and some without cheese.  The ones with cheddar cheese were the clear favorite.  I made chicken salad, but these would be super quick and easy with some store bought chicken salad.  If you need more tailgating ideas check out these recipes.





Chicken Salad Crescents
(Printable Recipe)

2 cups chopped chicken
1 cup celery
1 tsp worcestershire sauce
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
3/4 cup mayo
3 cans crescent rolls
8 slices cheddar cheese
poppy seeds

Mix together first six ingredients and set aside (or chill if making crescents later).

Preheat oven to 375. Separate crescent rolls into triangles. Cut each triangle in half to form two triangles. Place 1/3 slice of cheddar cheese on top of crescent roll, top with a tablespoon scoop of chicken salad (I used a small cookie scoop) and roll up the crescent roll. Place on cookie sheet. Sprinkle with poppy seeds.  Repeat with remaining crescent rolls. Bake at 375 for 18-20 minutes, or until golden brown.

I love this idea, plus I have a can of Pillsbury rolls left over from your meatball sliders. Which were delicious Stephanie. Thanks for the recipe.

I tried making these the other night and they turned out great! I'm terrible at following recipes and actually having all the right ingredients, so I definitely messed up the recipe. But they at least turned out ok, however they didn't look near as tasty as yours do! I posted about it on my blog if you wanted to check it out.
