Chicken Salad Croissants

Marie Nixon's Note:

This recipe was submitted by Laura Koziarski from Battlecreek, MI on the website allrecipes.com. I make the following two changes: I add 1/4 c. peeled and finely diced celery to add extra crunch and I use only 2 tablespoons of the dill pickle relish. I prepare this recipe's cooked chicken using Cooked Chicken for Recipes - Barefoot Contessa Style. In my opinion, because of the pickle relish, this is a chicken salad recipe that needs to be eaten on some type of bread. I don't think it would taste good served by itself or with crackers.
