- 4 lices Bacon cooked and crumbled
- 3 tablespoons chopped green onion
- 8 ounces cream cheese softened

- Remove one crescent dough sheet from the package and place it on your work surface.
- Spoon half of the chicken mixture onto the dough and spread in an even layer.
- Roll the dough up and slice into 9 equal rounds using a serrated knife.
- Repeat with the remaining crescent sheet and filling.
- Place the crescent rounds on the baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through.

Notes
- You can easily add a bit of spice to this recipe by mixing in a bit of cayenne pepper to the filling.
- For another variation, add a packet of taco seasoning or ranch seasoning in place of the spices listed.
- If you can't find crescent dough sheets, regular crescent dough will work fine. Just use your fingers to press together the perforations on the dough to form one large sheet.
- Skip the crescent dough and use 2-3 flour tortillas instead. Spread the filling over the tortillas, roll up, and slice. Serve cold or air fry at 370 degrees for 5 minutes.
