Time 48m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 cups diced, cooked chicken meat
1 cup fresh broccoli, chopped
½ cup red bell pepper, chopped
1 clove crushed garlic
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
½ cup mayonnaise

Fold the side strips over chicken mixture, alternating strips from each side. Pinch or twist to seal.
