Preparation Time: 15 minutes

Servings: 8 roll ups
Ingredients
- 6 oz cooked chicken breast, chopped
- 1 can crescent rolls
- 1 can cream of chicken soup
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/2 cup cheese, shredded
Directions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
- In a medium bowl, combine the cream of chicken soup, milk, and shredded cheese. Stir until all the ingredients are well mixed. Set aside.
- Separate the crescent dough into 8 triangles. Place the chopped chicken on the wider end of each triangle.
- Top each piece of chicken with about 1 teaspoon of the soup mixture. Roll up the crescent rolls starting at the chicken-topped end and place each roll in the prepared baking dish.
- Pour about 1/3 cup of the remaining soup mixture into the bottom of the baking dish, then arrange the crescent rolls over the soup layer. Pour the rest of the soup mixture evenly over the crescent rolls.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and the sauce is bubbly.
