Chicken Packets (Oamc) Recipe #50767
Another Once a month meal that's sure to please. My little girl likes these because they pick up easily in her hands! *I revised this recipe based on several folks pointing out that I had made a mistake on the amount of cream cheese. Thank you so much for the input!

- 1/2 cup seasoned croutons, crushed to crumbs
- 2 (8 ounce) packages refrigerated crescent dinner rolls
