Italian Pinwheels

Looking for a quick, easy appetizer idea that can also be used for a lunch or dinner with a big salad! I thank Amber's Delectable Delights (and Erica's Kitchen Adventures) for this find.



Italian Pinwheels

Ingredients

1 can (8 oz.) Pillsbury Crescent Recipe creations

1/3 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded

1/3 cup Parmesan cheese, shredded

6 slices salami, diced (I used sliced pepperoni - turkey pepperoni at that)

1 tsp. Italian seasoning (I know I used more)

1 egg white, beaten

Directions

1. Heat oven to 350 degrees. Unroll crescent roll dough sheet onto a large cutting board.

2. Sprinkle the dough with the mozzarella, Parmesan, salami (pepperoni) and Italian spices.

3. Starting at shortest side, roll up the dough sheet into one large cylinder; pinch edge to seal. Cut roll into 12 slices. Place slices, cut side down, 1 inch apart on ungreased cookie sheet. Gently press down on slices to ensure uniform baking. Brush with beaten egg white.

4. Bake 18 to 20 minutes or until golden brown.
