Chicken Broccoli Braid

Another Aunt Paula favorite!  I believe this is a similar recipe to the pampered chef one...  When I made it the first time- I had no idea how to do the braid. I found this on youtube and it shows how to make it pretty!

Chicken Broccoli Braid
2 c. cooked chicken
1 c. broccoli 
1/2 c. red bell pepper
1 garlic clove
1 c. sharp cheddar cheese
1/2 c. mayo
2 tsp. dry dill weed
1/4 tsp. salt
2 T. slivered almonds
2 packages crescent rolls

Chop chicken, broccoli and red pepper.  In a large bowl combine chicken, broccoli, red pepper, garlic, cheese, mayo, dill weed & salt. Mix well. Unroll both packages of crescent rolls.  Do not separate sections.  Arrange dough across the width of a cookie sheet or baking stone.  Roll dough to seal perforations.  Apply filling down the center of the dough (approx. 6 in.) and fold sides over the filling.  Brush 1 lightly beaten egg white over dough.  Sprinkle with almonds. 

Bake @ 375 for 30 minutes or until deep golden brown.
