Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups cooked shredded chicken
  • 1 8 oz package cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 8 oz can refrigerated crescent roll dough

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, cream cheese, cheddar cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
