whoa, these are fantastic! I'm on a budget so had some creative stretching to do. I used two cans of crescent rolls and 1 frozen chub of pork sausage meat (the kind some use for stuffing). I sprinkled fresh chives and parsley from the garden on the first batch and dried italian seasoning on the second. Used only enough grated cheese to say there was some on it and rolled, sliced and baked. While mine aren't as generously filled as yours, these are most welcome at my table. We will enjoy these again and again over the winter. Thanks for a great recipe. P.S. my daughter has asked for these to take to school. Now that's a compliment! -
Very good and quick to make! I made these the night before with a 8oz can of crescent dough sheet and then rolled it up in wax paper and plastic wrap. The next morning I cut them and baked it. I think I may have cut mine a little thick as they took 19 minutes to cook. Were really good and perfect for a busy morning. Made for Cook-a-thon for Pets'R'Us 5/2010. -
These were awesome! Great football game grub! Just to add a little kick, I sprinkled them with a bit of chili powder. The guys dug it! -
Loved these! My mother used to make something similar to these. She made up her own dough, but using the crescent rolls is so much faster & easier. DH asked, "You are going to make these again, aren't you?" I found that slicing them without chilling them first was a little difficult, so I chilled them like you suggested and that made it much easier. After I'd rolled them up, I remembered I forgotten the cheese, but they were still great. DH loves cheddar cheese and is ready for me to make these again, next time remembering the cheese. Thanks for a great breakfast idea! -
Loved these. I had some pork sausage I wanted to use up and these worked out great. My husband loved them. Your recipe is a definite keeper. Thank you.

Hello, my name is Bonnie and I am a very beautiful cat as you can see if you look at the picture at the top of this page.... What??.. I am supposed to talk about you??? But it says here: About Me!! Well all right then ......
My mom is Dutch and has moved to England in October 2007, after living 15 years in the Netherlands with my English dad. They don’t have any human children and “created” their own family, which means I have to share them with Hannah, she is a 6 years old tortie cat, Abby the dog, she is a 9 year old Beagle, and a one year old black Miniature Pincher named Poppy, I refuse to tell you my age but I am a georgious lilac British Shorthair cat!!
It is obvious she adores pets just by looking at her name she uses on Zaar (many on Zaar call her Pets or Petsie Poo), her name in real life is Annelies and that is a common Dutch name.
My mom always liked to cook, but since she joined Zaar it got out of control, and it doesn’t help that she is disorganized. Printed recipes everywhere in the house, the recipe binders have got bigger and just between you and me, her hips too!!!
I have lived in Holland all of my life until now, but they lived in several different countries/places:- desert and coastal Oman, up North and West in Holland, Vancouver-Canada, Aberdeen- Scotland and in Norway they lived in Bergen and Oslo. We have all moved together to England, as you can see I’ve already learnt the language!
I heard her say to Dad that this is the last time she moved to another country...she's had it with moving from one place to another! ( its her age...she's getting grumpy)
Mom is 55 years old but I always hear her say that the date of her birthday does not mean that much to her, the date of her cancer anniversary is more important, because so far she is a survivor.
Besides cooking she has other interests too, crafts, gardening and soap making.
She likes Zaar and is one of the hosts on the German-Benelux Forum here on RecipeZaar.
She would like to thank everybody who tries and comments on the recipes she has posted on Recipezaar, your feedback is very much appreciated.
