Superbowl Sunday

If there's any day in the year to break your already weak-willed New Year's Resolution it's Super Bowl Sunday. In a perfect world I said no to all the junk food so readily available to me that day AND I'll even say that I hit the gym, but in reality I became a bottomless pit.

On the bright side, I made Chicken Enchilada Puffs! This is first recipe that I tried from Pinterest and the first recipe that was a complete success. No unexplicable mess, no "let's just throw this away and order pizza" syndrome, and I didn't even burn anything! Some of you think I'm kidding about the burning part, but I almost did burn the house down once. I'll save the "I didn't know garlic bread could catch on fire" story for another time though. For now I'll give you a play-by-play on how to make these delicious snacks.




Ingredients:

•  Jumbo Crescent Rolls. [1 package makes 16]
•  1/2 cup of shredded chicken
•  2 tsp of taco seasoning mix
•  1/3 cup of enchilada sauce
•  2 tbsp of cream cheese
•  1/2 cup of mexican blend shredded cheese

Directions:

• Preheat oven to 375 and have a cookie sheet ready 
• Mix shredded chicken, enchilada sauce, and taco seasoning in a bowl
• Throw the cream cheese and shredded cheese together in a bowl and into the microwave to soften for 30-40 seconds
• Mix the shredded cheese & cream cheese with the chicken
• Spread jumbo crescent rolls out onto a pan and cut each triangle into 2 triangles (the picture explains it better)
• Scoop 1 tsp of the chicken and place into each roll
• Pull outer corners in toward chicken mixture and enclose the filling
• Bake until golden brown

Optional: the original recipe says you can sprinkle cheese on top, but I don't only because with my luck the cheese on top would catch on fire.

As I made them the second and third time I started changing things around a little, but you can find the original recipe here: Chicken Enchilada Puffs
