Ever wonder what to do with that leftover chicken breast?  I made chicken the other night and found it to be bland, so I didn't want to go near it the next day.  I ended up looking online for ideas on how to make it better.  This is what I found on allrecipes.com.  I had to change out the ingredients for what I had in my pantry.
2 cups of diced chicken
1/2 c mayo
4 tsp dried dill
1/4 tsp salt
2 Tbsp slivered almonds (I had to use small pieces of pecans)
1 c. broccoli (I didn't even have any, so I skipped it)
1/4 c diced onion
1 c. shredded cheddar cheese
 2 packages refrigerated crescent rolls (I didn't have this. Instead, I had Pillsbury Country Italian Bread loaf).
Preheat oven to 375
In a large bowl, mix everything except the dough together.
Unroll dough onto a baking sheet topped 
with parchment paper. 
I cut a slit down the middle and opened it up like it had a zipper jacket. 
Then I squished the dough out to the sides. 
If you are using crescent rolls, pinch the perforations to 
form a single dough sheet. 
Next, fill the center with your mixture.
Finally, fold the sides in and pinch together to form a seal.
You may brush the dough with egg white, I didn't. Bake to the directions on the dough container or until golden brown. Enjoy while it's warm.
 

 
 
This looks so good Corrina! I may just have to try it the next time my chicken doesn't "wow" me :)
