"'When I was expecting our third child, this was one of the meals I put in the freezer ahead of time,' recalls Jo Groth of Plainfield, Iowa. 'We now have four kids and they all like these rich chicken pockets. I've also made them with ham or smoked turkey,' she adds."

I use this recipe alot. It's great and easy. You can cut each square into 4 small squares and put a tsp. of mixture in each making 32 little bundles. Great appetizer. I usually leave the crushed croutons off the top. Always gets compliments.

Great! A few options: leave off the topping and drench in fresh white/cream sauce you made from scratch. Also, if you don't have leftover chick, just drain two cans of all white meat or mixed chicken. Add pimientos for color and a new dimension in the taste.

My husband loved the richness of these - especially because there's no veggies mixed in! :) I didn't have crescent rolls so I used jumbo butter biscuits - I put one biscuit on the bottom, the stuff on top of it, and topped it with another biscuit. I used half canned chicken and half deli ham. It was creamy and rich and very filling! It made 8 large sandwiches and I could only eat one, but the leftovers were still good!

This is a great recipe. I added mixed vegetables to the cream cheese mixture which made it very tasty. Next time, I will reduce the amount of cream cheese that I use, as it was a little too rich for our liking. The crunchy stuffing croutons could be left out, however, I think that they give it a nice texture.

I loved this recipte. I had to change a few things due to lack of products. I used half of the butter inside with Olive Oil (out of butter). Then had to use an egg wash on the outside. Without croutons, I used slivered almonds. Everything was great. I also added some dill inside - could have probably used more. Really nice change of pace for us! We loved it!

Not a bad basic recipe but I did have to spruce it up a bit. I added sour cream, garlic power, parmesan cheese and some over spices. There was still something missing though. As I did use canned turkey instead of chicken, I think if I make this again I am going to add some cranberries to it. Or maybe have some raspberry jam on the side. It was good just not quite there for me. ~~~~~~ The next day... These were even better cold the next day. yum. Wonderful basic recipe.

I cut the recipe in half and made 4 bundles. I also used low-fat crescent rolls and cream cheese too. They turned out perfect.

SUPER DELICOUS! I followed some of the recommendations and decreased the cream cheese. I agree that more would have made it too rich. (and I LOVE cream cheese) I did stir in mixed vegetables which rounded out the dish very nicely! This will definitely be in rotation in our house!
