  • Good!

    Anytime you put cream cheese and chicken together it is good but try this for a twist. For the topping I make a can of cream of chicken soup and mix with with 1/2 cheddar cheese. Cook to heat and melt cheese and pour it over the top... YUMMO!!!

    IT'S A GOOD VARIATION ON AN OLD RECIPE. I DON'T KNOW ABOUT THE CRANBERRY SAUCE, BUT I DO KNOW THAT IF YOU COOK CRESCENT ROLLS IN THE OVEN FOR 25 MINUTES, YOU GET BURNED CRESCENT ROLLS.

  • entire family love it

    Simple, quick, cheap... What a great change of pace for a busy working mother. This was easy to follow and great tasting. The spredable cheese gave it a wonderful flavor. We all know how hard it is to find something new to prepare with chicken.... this did it for us.

  • Really three reviews in one

    Andrew M - May 18, 2008 05:29:25 PM PST
    Dad says: my normally picky 9 and 7 year olds actually liked this and we will have it again. Very easy to prepare and the kids helped as well. I put a dash of pesto on top of the cheese to give mine a bit more flavour.

    9 year old says: I give it 4 stars because the croissant was something I already liked. I don't normally like chicken but this was good.

    7 year old says: I give it 3 and a half stars. I did not like the cheese though. I will eat it again if there is less cheese on it.
