Chicken and Broccoli Braid

Ingredients

  • 2 cups diced cooked chicken meat
  • 1 cup fresh broccoli chopped
  • 1/2 cup red bell pepper chopped
  • 1 clove crushed garlic
  • 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 teaspoons dried dill weed
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons slivered almonds
  • 1/4 cup diced onion
  • 2 8 ounce packages refrigerated crescent rolls
  • 1 egg white beaten

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375.
  • Toss together first ten ingredients in bowl.
  • Unroll crescent dough, and arrange on flat baking pan (you'll have two rows of squares across and four rows of squares down - does that make sense at all?)
  • Pinch together the perforations in the crescent rolls so that it's one large rectangle.
  • Keeping a three inch strip in the center, cut slits on the right and left side for your braid.
  • Spread the chicken mixture down the center of the Pillsbury crescent rolls, then braid the dough over the chicken mixture.
  • Whisk together egg white, and brush the braided dough with the egg white.
  • Bake at 375 for 25-28 minutes, or until golden brown.
