Chicken and Broccoli Braid

This is the best appetizer/light dinner if need be!
2 cups cooked/chopped chicken
1 cup chopped broccoli
1 clove of garlic (pressed)
4 oz. shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1/2 cup mayo
2 tsp dill
1/4 tsp salt
2 packages crescent rolls
1 egg white
1. Preheat oven to 375. Chop chicken and broccoli up fine and put into a medium sized bowl. Add pressed garlic and mix.
2. Add shredded cheese, mayo, dill, and salt.
3. Unroll 1 package of crescent rolls and arrange the longest sides all the way down the baking sheet, repeat along the opposite side with the second package of rolls.
4. Spread the filling evenly over the middle of the dough. Braid by lifting the strips of dough across the mixture to meet in the center, twisting as you pull it over. Alternate just like when you braid hair and tuck the ends under at each end.
5. Brush egg white over the top using a pastry brush. Bake for 25-28 minutes or until deep golden brown.
So so so good!

I made your dip on sunday and it was another hit. We loved it. I'm about to go warm some up now and have it for lunch.
Have a good week!
