Super Easy Chicken in a Blanket

Although I've never met her, Cynthia in Atlanta sent this to me via an e-mail recipe exchange - something like a chain letter where you're forced to reveal one of your all-time favorite recipes or some horrible evil thing will happen to you. She said: "I make this on nights when I’m working and tired but want something a little more sophisticated than hot dogs." It was really good! My boyfriend had no idea it was just cream cheese inside. He thought I had spent lots of time making a special filling. Next time I may try one of the cream cheeses they sell with flavoring already in it, like herb or sun dried tomato.

• Ready In: 25 mins
• Serves: 4

Ingredients

• 2  boneless skinless chicken breasts
• 4  ounces light cream cheese
• 1  portabella mushroom, sliced in large pieces
• 8  ounces  refrigerated reduced-fat crescent rolls
• 6  tablespoons  italian seasoning (the parmesan or sun dried tomato bread dipping seasonings are good)

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350.
2. Cut chicken breasts in half. Spread a layer of cream cheese on the chicken breast, then sprinkle the seasoning on top. Cover with mushrooms.
3. Leave croissants in a rectangle (2 croissants) and press together so it won’t separate. Roll it over the top of the chicken and wrap under as far as possible.
4. Bake on a cookie sheet until golden brown and chicken is done through.
