4 ounces cream cheese, very soft

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter a casserole dish (any size to hold crescent rolls). In a saucepan, mix half and half cream, 3/4 cup grated cheese (can use more cheese if desired) and undiluted chicken soup (can season with black pepper if desired).

Drizzle a small amount of soup mixture on the bottom of the dish. Then place the crescent rolls seam-side down on top of the creamed mixture in the casserole. Drizzle the remaining sauce on top (you don't have to use the full amount of cream sauce, just use as much as desired) and sprinkle with 1 cup (or more) grated cheese, or amount desired. Bake for about 30 minutes. notes I don't use as much pepper; probably about half the amount listed.

Drizzle a small amount of soup mixture on the bottom of the dish. Just enough to cover bottom, I have found out that too much will make the crescents soggy. 12. Then place the crescent rolls seam-side down on top of the creamed mixture in the casserole. 13. Drizzle the remaining sauce on top (you don't have to use the full amount of cream sauce, just use as much as desired) and sprinkle with 1 cup (or more) grated cheese, or amount desire. 14. Bake for about 30 minutes

Tips:

  • Use rotisserie chicken for a quick and easy shortcut.
  • Feel free to add other vegetables to the casserole, such as broccoli, cauliflower, or peas.
  • If you don't have cream of chicken soup, you can use cream of celery soup or cream of mushroom soup instead.
  • Be sure to season the casserole to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Serve the casserole with a side of mashed potatoes, rice, or noodles.
