Crescent Roll Chicken

This is a easy recipe with delicious results.

The basic recipe is only 5 ingredients:
2 C shreaded cooked chicken
1C cheese (any kind... we used cheddar)
2 tubes of crescent rolls
1 can of soup (you can use cream of chicken, cream of celery or cream of mushroom)
1C milk

I of course doctored it a bit with...
1/2 C pre cooked bacon
Sauted onion, garlic & shreaded carrots

Mix the chicken, cheese, bacon, onion, garlic & carrots well.
Pop open the crescent rolls & roll out each triangle. Place about 1/4 C of the mixture on to each triangle. Pinch the 3 corners of the crescent roll together to form a bundle. Carefully transfer to 9x13 pan. The bundles will fit close together in the pan & it is OK if some mixture falls out.

Wisk the milk & soup together & pour over the bundles.

Bake in oven for 35-40 minutes at 350. You want to make sure the center bundles are not doughy.
