What to Serve with Chicken Crescent Roll ups
These chicken roll ups are great for an easy lunch or dinner on hectic weeknights. They also make a great party appetizer. I always have the ingredients on hand to whip up a last minute meal. Serve the rolls with the extra marinara sauce or some ranch dressing for dipping.
To complete your meal, consider serving these mouthwatering delights with a side of spaghetti or garlic butter noodles. The pasta will harmonize beautifully with the rich flavors of the rolls. For a lighter option, a side salad with creamy dressing can add a refreshing contrast to the warm, cheesy goodness. And if you’re in the mood for some veggies, green beans or roasted asparagus can provide a healthy balance to your plate. These sides not only complement the flavors but also turn your meal into a satisfying feast.

I think I'll pick up some chicken fingers in the store deli to make these super easy with less cooking time.
My husband LOVES these. I just use the Kroger brand chicken fingers – a lot cheaper than Tyson and just as tasty.
I made these last night and they were a hit! Super easy and yummy… will definitely make again.
This sounds awesome!! But of course my first thought was how yummy a buffalo chicken version would be! =)
I made these tonight – they were delicious and SO easy! Thanks!
