Chicken Broccoli Braid Recipe


Chicken Broccoli Braid Recipe
My daughter loves this. This is great for a brunch, lunch, meal. Serve it with Waldorf salad or regular salad. Something fruity would be nice on the side. Depending on the day and season.

Sounds great. Making it tonight. Could you use pizza dough too?


I have this recipe too (not posted...) It's really very good. Very easy to make too. Great to take to potluck socials. That's actually how I aquired the recipe, someone else had made it. I have a picture I could upload if you'd like.
