Pigs in a Blanket

These always go fast at parties. They don't take long to make or bake...

1 Can Pillsbury Crescent Rolls
1 Pkg Little Smokies

Start by removing the cresent dough from the can. Roll them out onto a cutting board. Use a sharp knife and cut the dough into triangles just big enough to roll around the sausages (see photo above). they don't have to be perfect, and to be honest I'd rather have less than more of the dough with each one. Place on a baking sheet and bake at 375 for 12-15 min or until the dough is bbd... Eay & Enjoy!

Dig The Pig!

Sushi - Cucumber Roll


The yin and yang of sushi - Nice cool cucumber and nice spicy wasabi all wrapped up in a little roll...

1 Sheet Nori
1 Cup Sushi rice
1/2 cucumber, peeled, seeded, and cut into long strips
wasabi

Start by cutting your nori in half. put the shiny side down. Spread out a half cup sided ball of sushi rice over the rice. I find that it's easy to roll if you spread the rice all the way to the edges and keep it even.





Once you have your rice spread out, put a line of prepared wasabi down the middle of the rice from side to side. Use as little or as much as you like here. Go easy because they can always add more when they are eating it. Lay down a good quantity of the cucumber right in the middle of the roll.




Use your mat to roll up the roll. Cut into pieces - Eat & Enjoy!









Sushi on!
