12 oz. cooked chicken, chopped (2 cups - about3 cooked boneless skinless chicken breast halves)1 C. broccoli, chopped1/2 C. red bell pepper, chopped1 clove garlic, pressed4 oz. sharp Cheddar cheese, shredded (1 cup)1/2 C. mayonnaise2 tsp. All-purpose Dill Mix (or 1 teaspoon dillweed)1/4 tsp. salt2 pkg. (8 oz. each) refrigerated crescent rolls [[this is where I used the bread dough]]1 egg white, lightly beaten2 T. slivered almonds
Preheat oven to 375ºF.
Chop chicken and broccoli and place in bowl. Add chopped red bell pepper. Press garlic over mixture and shred cheese over mixture. Add mayonnaise, dill mix and salt. Mix well.
Unroll package of crescent rolls. Do not separate. Arrange longest sides of dough across width of 12 x 15-inch pan and repeat with remaining package of dough. Roll out dough to seal perforations. On long side of pan, cut dough into strips 1 1/2 inches apart, 3-4 inches deep leaving approximately 4-6 inches in the center of dough for filling. Spread filling evenly over middle of dough.
To braid: lift strips of dough across mixture to meet in center, twisting each strip one turn. Continue alternating strips to form braid. Tuck ends under to seal at ends. Brush egg white over dough and sprinkle with almonds. Baked 25-28 minutes or until deep golden brown.
