Ingredients:
2 packages (8 ounce each) cream cheese, softened
1/4 tspn garlic salt
1/4 tspn onion powder
2 cups shredded cooked chicken
1/2 cup chopped cooked bacon (about 6 slices)
1/2 cup chopped cooked ham
3/4 cup shredded Swiss cheese 
2 cans (8 ounce each) Pillsbury™ refrigerated crescent dinner rolls

Directions:
Heat oven to 375
Lightly spray 18x13 cookie sheet with cooking spray
In a large bowl, stir together cream cheese, garlic salt, and onion powder until evenly combined
Add chicken, bacon, ham and Swiss cheese; stir together, making sure to evenly coat all ingredients in cream cheese mixture
Set aside
Using 1 can of crescent dough, separate dough into 4 rectangles (2 crescents per section)
Place on cookie sheet in a circular shape resembling a compass, one rectangle pointing north, one pointing east, one pointing south and the last one pointing west


Using the second can of dough, separate dough into 4 rectangles
Filling gaps of the first layer, arrange rectangles in similar circular shape, only this time having one pointing northeast, one pointing southeast, on pointing southwest and the last one pointing northwest



Evenly spoon cream cheese mixture over dough
Mold mixture into shape of ring on center of dough circle, making sure to leave about 1/2 - inch gap of dough in center of the ring


 

Fold outer edges of dough ring over filling to dough without filling in the center of the ring
Press dough edges to seal completely so filling does not leak out during baking
Seal all gaps, openings and edges to completely cover filling with dough and make a smooth and uniform appearance



Bake for 20 minutes or until top is golden brown
Cool 5 to 10 minutes before cutting into servings
Serve warm
