As some of you may remember I bought this recipe box at
an antique store for 1.00 I have tried some of them with so so results.
Tonight we hit the jackpot with this one! It is called chicken crescent squares.
I roasted a chicken over the weekend and had some, ok a lot of chicken to use up.
It is a keeper for sure I will make some changes next time only to change it up
not because I didn't like it. I will put the recipe at the end of this post.
Tonight on my way out of work I saw this. I couldn't resist taking a picture
even though it was cold and blowing pretty hard.
Red skies at night.... into the deep freeze for the next two days.

This serves 8 I cut it in half for us
Mix together well
6 oz of cream cheese softened
4 Tablespoons of butter melted
4 Cups of chopped chicken meat
1/4 Cup of milk
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
1/4 tsp celery seed
2Tbls. grated onion
2Tabls of pimento chopped(I didn't use this)
****
2) 8oz crescent rolls
keep 2 triangles together and roll out gently to try and make a square.
Making sure that the perforations are sealed
so you would get 4 squares per package of rolls
***
fill squares with a good helping of chicken mixture about 2+ tablespoons
pull all the ends to the top and seal (like a hobo bag.)
****
I brushed each package with olive oil and sprinkled with pepperidge farms
stuffing.
bake at 350 for 20-30 minutes
***
heat up a can of cream of mushroom soup with 1/3 cup of milk and drizzle over the cooked squares
***
I think for some of the changes I may put dried cranberries in the mix.
or maybe celery and a bit of garlic, it was very good and worth the try.
I also believe any left over meats could be used.

Recipe sounds good! Get your long woolies out kid--we are going to experience what our frozen foods feel like in the freezer.
Oh, that sound so good!
This sounds like a very tasty recipe. That is an absolutely beautiful sunset! Take care, and stay warm!
Evening Cathy, oh yummy, looks so good....love the red sky even though freezing out, Blessings Francine.
That sounds like a good recipe, I do loved creamed foods over biscuits. I can't eat the store rolls so I make my own biscuits. I watched a lady on tv who said the trick is to mix the batter with your hands and for rolling, and it does make them fluffier.

Wow, what a beautiful red sky. There's a saying that goes something like this: Red sky at night, sailors' delight, red sky in the morning, sailors take warning.
