  1. Hi, I’m in the process of making this for my menu and it’s clear the amount of crescent rolls is wrong. I cook for 4 people, so my measurement says 5 1/3 cup chicken and calls for 16oz of crescent rolls, which is 16 rolls. I assembled 16 and I have at least half of the mixture left. Can someone please check this?

    1. All of recipes are automatically doubled in menu builder which means your preparing this meal for 2 dinners, 4 servings each. Each dinner will have 8 rolls. Feel free to email info@onceamonthmeals.com if you have additional questions. We’re happy to help!

    1. Since the chicken has already been cooked the main need is to cook the crescent roll. Typically I cook them until they are just cooked- not brown yet – on cooking day. Then on serving day I reheat and don’t run the risk of burning the roll.
