Cheese Rolls

Once again, I got hungry and tried to find some ingredients to throw together. Luckily I still had some of the ingredients left from my rolled pizza meal, because there wasn't much else to be found. This time I tweaked the recipe because I didn't have any pepperonis and I thought the topping last time was a little too strong.

So I rolled a third of a stick of string cheese in each crescent, leaving a third to enjoy for the time being, and brushed the tops of each of them with olive oil. The olive oil helps the topping to stick and to brown it up a bit. Instead of mixing the topping as before I just sprinkled the top with grated parmesan topping and used an italian seasoning grinder to finish it off.

I followed the instructions on the can of crescents and preheated and cooked them for the allotted time. Once they'd browned up I removed them. They turned out very nice and didn't leak as much cheese as last time.

I served it up with pizza dipping sauce and I thought they tasted better than my first attempt. The topping didn't taste overly salty, though some pepperoni might have added a nice spice to them. I think this is a very good meal for kids and something that is easy to whip up when you need something quick. If I had kids this would definitely be a go-to meal.

Hope you enjoy!

Rolled Pizza

I saw this recipe on a blog I follow (which one is difficult to say because I follow so many). I thought it looked easy and a nice little meal to try. I added a topping recipe (mimicking the pizza hut topping) to add a little something to it.

What you will need to begin:

1 roll of crescents
3 string cheese sticks
pepperoni
dipping sauce
(you could also add other desired toppings)

Garlic powder
Onion powder
Dried parmesan cheese
Dried oregano
olive oil

First, mix the topping together.

2 tablespoons dried parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon oregano

Then you take your crescents and add the toppings to the inside. I cut the string cheese into thirds, put one third onto four pepperonis, and rolled them up.

Take the olive oil and brush it onto the top of the rolls. Then you sprinkle on the topping.

You preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit and once it has preheated you cook for about 10 minutes or until golden brown.

I served them up with pizza dipping sauce.

I found that the topping made it a little too salty for my taste so the next time I'll be leaving that out, but you may enjoy it. I think it would be better on some faux pizza hut breadsticks. I hope you enjoy!

New Year. New Attitude.

I don't know if it's the new year but I'm ready for a change. This past year I've been feeling kind of depressed and just blah. I've decided to chuck that out the window and start living. Yeah, for now I can't change everything in my life that I'd like, but I can do the best with what I've been handed. With that comes my obsession with crafting. I have so many ideas I've found and want to try, so I'm buckling down and getting them done. Look out for my posts because I'll be testing many things out.
