Chicken, Broccoli, and Cheese Bread Braid

We had this tonight. All credit and compliments go to Pinterest and Food Family Finds. I had been wanting to try this awhile but I just always forget. It is great. And what was most surprising to me was that RJ inhaled it---broccoli and all!

Here is what you need:
2 cans Pillsbury Original Crescent Rolls
2 cups chicken chunks, cooked
2 cups cheddar cheese
2 cups broccoli, frozen, steamed and chopped
½ cup light mayonnaise
1 egg yolk
fresh rosemary

1) Preheat oven to 375 degrees F
2) On a parchment paper lined cookie sheet, spread both cans of crescents length wise to form a long rectangle. (I just lightly sprayed my pan).
3) Press each of the seams to form a single layer of dough.
4) In a large bowl, combine chicken, cheese, broccoli and mayonnaise. Spread mixture over the center of the croissant dough evenly to create a log.
5) Using a sharp knife, cut horizontal strips 1 inch apart down each side of the crescent dough.
6) Fold the dough strips over the top of the chicken mixture, alternating left and right to create a braid.
7) Brush the top of the braid with a beaten egg yolk and sprinkle fresh rosemary on top. (I did this but if you don't want your bread as flaky or as brown, you could omit the egg part).
8) Bake for 28 – 30 minutes until golden brown. (I only baked mine for 25 minutes. I personally think 20-25 minutes is perfect. My oven may just cook fast though).

Serve and enjoy!!!!
