Bacon Pinwheels

I am all about quick, easy and good tasting food and this recipe is just that! I made these for our New Years Party but they would be great anytime- a snack, Baby or Wedding Shower or Super Bowl Party! Give them a try! You will need to double or triple this recipe because they go quick!

Bacon Pinwheels

From Our Best Bites Blog

1 tube of crescent roll dough

2 ounces cream cheese

5-ish bacon slices, fried and chopped

Bunch of green onions, chopped (optional – I left these out and they were still amazing!)

Handful or two of cheddar cheese

Sprinkling of garlic salt

Unroll the crescent roll dough and smoosh together all the seams. Roll it out with the rolling pin to flatten it a bit. Spread with 2 ounces of softened cream cheese, right out to the very edges. Sprinkle with garlic salt. Sprinkle on the cheese and bacon (and green onion, if using) as evenly as possible. Roll it up from long end to long end. Slice into 1/2 to 1 inch (ish) slices and place on a baking sheet. Bake as directed on the crescent roll package.

Cheese Ball

I love crackers and a good chesseball! I could probably eat a whole cheeseball if I would let myself and I think that Keebler Club Crackers are a must to go with the cheeseball! It took me a while to find the recipe, but it's from Kraftfoods!

8 oz. cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
1/2 cup miracle whip
2 green onions, chopped
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 (4 oz.) can chopped black olives
1 cup chopped Pecan pieces

Beat the first 4 ingredients until well blended. Add onions, pepper and olives. Mix well. Form into balls and refrigerate several hours. Serve with Club Crackers!

Tortilla Pinwheels

My grandmother made these along time ago as a snack and I have always wanted to make them! I served them at a baby blessing for my nephew and at our Sugar Bowl Party!

Filling:
8 oz. sour cream
8 oz. cream cheese, softened
1 can (4 oz.) diced green chilies, well drained
1 can (4 oz.) chopped black olives, well drained
1 cup grated Cheddar Cheese
1/2 cup chopped green onion

Mix all of the ingredients together. divide the filling between 5 (10 inch) tortillas and spread evenly over the tortillas. Roll up tortillas. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate fore several hours. Unwrap and cut in 1/2 inch slices, discard the ends.

Makes about 50 pinwheels.

1/2 cup parmesan cheese
14 cup chopped green onion
1 package of Kraft real bacon pieces (or you can cook your own bacon)

Pepper to taste
