I must not have measured very well because I had quite a bit of extra chicken mixture. We liked the crunch from the celery. Everyone says it's easy to work with crescent rolls, but I find it tedious. Still, there were a hit.

These were pretty good, and it seems like they'd be easy to tweak with different ingredients. I made them for lunch for myself and my 2 year old, with a little dipping sauce ;).
