Courtney's Pizza Crescents

This semester has been hectic already. I am apologizing again for the lack of updates. I have like half a dozen recipes that I want to post, right now it is just about finding time to get around to writing them.

First and first mostly, I have to congratulate everyone who brought food to the Super bowl party last weekend.  The niners didn't come out on top, BUT I had a full tummy so that dulled the ache considerably.  It was pretty much impossible to decide on a winner because everything was so good, so I might end up posting some consolation recipes for the other people who wow-ed everyone with their culinary skills.

In my opinion, everything was great... But one thing stood out above the rest.  Probably because it was entirely gone in about 60 seconds.  We ended up making another batch the a few nights ago and they disappeared just a quickly.  I think helping Courtney make them the second time around solidified her first place finish in the dish off.  It took about 3 minutes to whip them up, and then only about 15 minutes in the oven.  The most awesome snack recipe I think I've ever seen.

Enjoying her Victory

Congratulations Court on winning the first annual College Girl, College Food Dish Off!

Crescent Pepperoni Rolls
(adapted from: Plain Chicken)

Ingredients:

• 1 can refrigerated crescent rolls
• 40 slices (turkey) pepperoni
• 4 pieces of mozzarella string cheese, cut in half
• Garlic Powder
• Pizza Sauce (optional)

Directions:

Preheat oven to 375.

Unroll the crescent rolls and separate into triangles. Place 5 slices of turkey pepperoni on each crescent roll and top pepperoni with string cheese half.  Roll up and sprinkle with garlic powder.

Place rolls on baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown. The original recipe suggests serving with a side of warm pizza sauce, but we just ate them plain and they were awesome.  To be completely honest, they didn't last long enough to make heating up pizza sauce even worth it.
