Ingredients
2 cans of Pillsbury Crescent Dough Sheets
1 can of Pillsbury Crescent Rolls
1 16oz roll of pork sausage
1 8oz cream cheese
10 slices of Canadian Bacon
1/2 cup of shredded triple cheese
1 12oz Beef Cocktail Smokies
1 cup of strawberries, in slices
1 1/2 cup of pecans
1 banana, in slices
1 tsp of dill weed
1/4 tsp of salt
1 tsp of black pepper
1 tsp of onion powder
1 tsp of Italian Seasoning
Directions
- Preheat oven to 375.
- Prepare cream cheese and sausage filling: cook pork sausage on medium heat until fully cooked, then add cream cheese.
- Add all the seasonings and stir well. Once the cream cheese and sausage if fully mixed together remove from heat.
- Roll out the crescent dough sheet onto a parchment paper lined cookie sheet. Cut it into 18 squares.
- Place about a tablespoon into the center of each dough square and fold in and pinch, similar to like a wonton.
- Cook for about 10-12 minutes or until the edges turn slightly brown.
- Now prep the pigs in a blanket. Roll out the crescent roll dough onto parchment paper. You will cut the pre-cut triangles in half to make them smaller to wrap the cocktail smokies.
- Heat up the cocktail smokies over medium heat for about 4 minutes, stirring the entire time.
- Wrap each cocktail smoky with the crescent roll dough by place the cocktail smoky on the wider end of the dough triangle and rolling it up.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes or until them begin to brown.
- Lastly, time to prep the ham and cheese crescent pastries. Heat up the canadian bacon over medium heat for about 5 minutes, flipping half way.
- Roll out the crescent dough sheet on parchment paper. Cut the dough sheet into 8 squares.
- Place one piece of canadian bacon into the center of each square.
- Next, place about a tablespoon of the shredded cheese on top.
- Now bring each corner to the center and press together. The size of the canadian bacon will either make this step easy or a little more work.
- Bake for about 10-12 minutes or until the edges begin to brown.
- After all 3 pastries have been baked, it is time to create the charcuterie board. Place the 3 different crescent roll pastries onto the board, along with a bowl of sliced strawberries and banana. Add the pecans as well as the fillings from the crescent rolls.
- Enjoy!
