Tailgate Food - Crescent Pizza Rolls

This Football Season I have decided to make tailgate food each week.  I'm a big Appetizer fan and think this will also help add some new recipes to bring to gatherings.  Occasionally, we will have a tried & true one, too.

We cheer for the Cleveland Browns having lived all our lives in northern Ohio.  We have been thru a lot with this team -- and one of these years.......

New front door decor for Game Day --

Our refrigerator has the schedules (with scores) for Ohio State University, Bowling Green State University (oldest grandson is a student there), and the Cleveland Browns.

Here's the first tailgate food of the season --

CRESCENT PIZZA ROLLS

8 oz. pkg. refrigerated crescent rolls
4 - cheese sticks (string cheese), halved
small pkg. of sliced pepperoni
pizza sauce for dipping

Garlic Butter Glaze -
2 T. melted butter
1/2 tsp. Italian seasoning
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1 T. grated parmesan cheese

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

On each triangle of crescent roll dough - place about 6 pepperoni slices at the widest edge.  Place the half of cheese stick on top.  Roll up & place seam side down on parchment covered cookie sheet.  Do this for all 8 crescents.

Bake for 10-15 minutes, until golden brown.

While they are baking -- prepare the Garlic Butter Glaze.  Combine all the glaze ingredients in a small bowl.  When the pizza rolls have finished baking & removed from the oven - brush this glaze on each roll.

You can serve pizza sauce (or any other sauce you may prefer) on the side for dipping.


I originally 'pinned' this recipe from this site.

I love taking pictures of Lucy sleeping.  Sometimes she looks so uncomfortable or other times so cozy.

I mean it kind of looks cozy, but how can she breathe?
