Pinwheels

If you've been to our house for a birthday party, you know we make pinwheels. These are so easy to make--and gobbled up quick!

Ingredients:
1/2 cup diced Morningstar Farms "sausage" links
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1/4 tsp. dried oregano
1 egg
1 tube (8 oz) refrigerated crescent rolls

Directions:
In a bowl, combine sausage, cheese, oregano and egg. Separate crescent dough into four rectangles; seal perforations. Spread sausage mixture over each rectangle to within 1/4" of edges. Roll up jelly-roll style; pinch seams to seal. Cut each into slices.

Place cut side down on greased baking sheets. Bake at 375 degrees for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm. Refrigerate leftovers. Yield: 2 dozen.

For extra pizzazz, serve with your favorite pizza sauce, marinara sauce, ranch salad dressing, or honey mustard sauce for dipping.
