- If you are short on time, you can use a store-bought rotisserie chicken instead of cooking the chicken yourself.
- For a vegetarian version, substitute cooked lentils or beans for the chicken.
- You can also use a store-bought pie crust instead of the crescent roll dough.
- If you like a more crispy top, brush the top of the crescent rolls with a beaten egg before baking.
