CHICKEN AND SAUSAGE HOLIDAY WREATH
The idea for the crescent roll wreath actually came from a Pampered Chef party many years ago, but the filling is mine. Around the holidays I decorated it with fresh sweet basil leaves and pieces of sweet red pepper to give it a holiday look. It really is an appeitzer that impresses, and ssshhh don't tell anyone, but it is made...

Steps:
- 1. Heat oil in a skillet, add sausage, and cook until no longer pink.
- 2. In a large bowl combine everything except crescent rolls.
- 3. Cover and chill for at least 1 hour.
- 4. Pre heat oven to 375°
- 5. Use a pizza pan that has been lined with aluminum foil (no clean up) Spray liberally with pam before you start.
- 6. If you use a pizza pan for this it will be easier to keep it in the round. Arrange the crescent rolls in a circle, long pointy ends facing out, short fat ends overlapping on the pan.
- 7. Put the filling evenly all around the wreath on the widest part of the dough. A disher works great here.
- 8. Fold the long pointy end back over the filling in the wreath, tucking in a little at the center.
- 9. Not all the filling will be covered, that's what you want.
- 10. bake for 20 minutes until golden, and expect to hear WOW when you bring it out. This never fails to impress.
CHICKEN AND SAUSAGE HOLIDAY WREATH
This is made with crescent rolls and leftover chicken, or you could use leftover ham, or even leftover any kind of meat. It is an appetizer with wow Factor, yet is easy to put together. For this I did use a 7 ounce chicken breast in the pouch, but leftover chicken works just as well. My friend Dana came over just as I was taking this out of the oven. I said "Hey girl wanna be my guinea pig?" When she saw it she said "Wow" This would be a perfect partner to my sparkling cranberry punch.

Steps:
- In a large mixing bowl combine everything but sausage, oil and crescent rolls.
- In a sauce pan heat the oil and cook the sausage until browned and cooked through, add to chicken mixture.
- Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least one hour to give the flavors a chance to marry.
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees
- Use a pizza pan for this step, it helps you keep the round shape.
- Unroll the crescent rolls. Arrange in a circle with the long pointy end facing out, and the fat sides overlaping.
- Spoon filling mixture on the widest part of each triangle. You will use about 3 rounded tablespoons per scoop. I use a disher for this.
- Fold the long pointy end back over the filled wreath and tuck under a little to seal in the center. Your filling will not completely be covered, that's just perfect that way.
- Bake for 20 minutes, or until golden and bubbly
