Sharing recipes for cooking and baking has become another favorite thing to do thru Social Media and thru Blogging.
I must admit my cooking and baking has come along way since we married 32 years ago…..just ask Jerry.
Now it is rolled into the fabric that unfolds thru the Blog of Classic Amy Joanne….who knew, right Mom?
While creating a menu for the week from various cookbooks and then creating the meal plan and grocery order, it has become something to look forward to and share…..all a part of Art & Home.
A fellow painting designer, Barbara Bunsey and I have grown to be good friends thru our love of painting and have found we also both enjoy a lot of the same hobbies, such as gardening, our homes and yes, cooking too! I am fortunate enough to have met Barbara during a Painting Seminar.
Barbara mailed a beautiful gift to me, a family cookbook (that is now out of print), I will treasure it. The family cookbook has a beautiful dedication to Maryellen Bunsey inside the cover and tucked inside is a sweet note from Barbara. Yes, a treasure for sure.
I asked Barbara if I could share a recipe with you….and she graciously said ‘why of course’! So here is a recipe from Maryellen Bunsey’s cookbook, a gift from Barbara Bunsey, made by Amy Mogish, and the recipe name is Laura’s Chicken Bundles!
A gift that keeps on giving.
Laura’s Chicken Bundles
Ingredients
- 3 chicken breasts cooked and chopped
- 1 can cream of chicken soup
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or replace with 4oz softened cream cheese)
- 3 packages of crescent rolls
- melted butter for brushing
- 1 cup crushed stuffing mix
Directions
- Mix chopped chicken, soup and cheese in a bowl.
- Open crescent rolls and form the triangles into squares by pinching together.
- Place about 1/2 Cup of mix into each square and pull up corners and sides to wrap into a bundle. Be sure all sides and seams are sealed.
- Brush the tops with melted butter and sprinkle each with crushed stuffing mix.
- Place on cookie sheet crumb side up.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes.
- Enjoy!
Thank you Barbara for this beautiful gift and for encouraging me to read the dedication. It is something I don’t always do…..and found it to be encouraging, inspiring and light hearted. I find myself now wanting to know more about cookbook Authors and their stories. I also love the hand written notes by recipes that you have enjoyed yourself…..I cannot wait to try them all.

Amy, you brought a tear(s) to my eye! So glad you are finding recipes to try–and love! Chris IS so happy you are finding these recipes he and Maryellen loved to be keepers too! He was (IS) the best and has made me the person I am because of his love and generosity. BTW Laura is my step-daughter.

This would also be perfect for a casual evening with friends! Yummy!
And I have a crazy collection of cookbooks, but seem to always go back to the tried and true ones lol
Absolutely and enjoy! Quick and easy 🙂….I hear ya, many dog eared stained pages here too!
These look just wonderful! 🙂 I am definitely going to try to make them. I love food on the go that you can make up ahead of time. It is just the thing for those of us who have busy days. I like one ‘big cooking day’ a week (ideally) and being able to pull on things the rest of the week that was made on that day. Thanks to you and Barbara for sharing this with us. I love your blogs! So many ways to create!
Thank you Sheila! My Mom most weeks will cook one day to have eats for the week! Love it! Sooooo many ways to create, yes!
I can not wait to try this recipe !!! You know how much I treasure cookbooks like this one. I will be looking for this one for sure. Thanks for sharing.
Enjoy! ….another fun cookbook!
