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.

Pan Fried Zucchini



Put a little bit of Olive Oil/or butter into frying pan
I used two smaller yellow squash and zucchini (love the farmers market), cut into slices
Cook on medium for 10 minutes or until they are a little brown
Right before you take them off sprinkle some salt, pepper and mozzarella cheese
It is so easy, cheap and delicious!

Salsa



Salsa recipe given to me by cousin Haley B.

1 large can whole peeled tomatoes (16 oz can)
1 onion
2 bunches green onions
1 bunch cilantro
1-10 serrano peppers (depending on your heat level - I did 2, and it was perfect)
mince garlic (maybe a teaspoon or less)
sugar (maybe 2 Tablespoons)

Blend tomatoes in blender with garlic and sugar, poor into large bowl
Boil peppers for 10 minutes, drain most of the water, let them cool
Cut onion, green onions, and cilantro and add to bowl with tomatoes
Blend peppers with the little bit of water left over

Stir everything together and eat.
You may want to add some of the pepper stuff at a time and taste to see how hot it is.
Also, I think it tastes better after it sits in the fridge for a few hours


(I made it yesterday, took it to a Bbq and it was a hit!)
