I've liked these since I was in elementary school.
ReplyDeleteOne tip - they take a little while to make (because of the dough rolling)and they are eaten quickly, so I find it more satisfying to make them in a large batch. They can be eaten cold and reheat fairly well (you might want to use an oven to get the roll toasty again).
I made these with some modifications. I used reduced fat cream cheese, mayo and croissants. As far as I could tell it didn't change the flavor or consistency at all.
ReplyDeleteI also added a can of diced green chilies, some chopped green onion and a large handful of shredded cheddar cheese. They were delicious!
Thanks!
ReplyDeletewe also add pimentos, they're great!
