Homemade Pizza Rolls

I am addicted to Pinterest.  Love, love, love it.  If you have never visited the site I give you one warning: don't until you have at least half a day to spend on it!  It's a place to store all your "favorites" by photo.  And you can see what everyone else is "pinning" about as well.  Moving on.

I found a quick snack/lunch to try out with the kids this weekend and I wanted to share with you my version.  It's homemade pizza rolls which are made very similar to pigs-in-a-blanket.  Here's what you need:


Cresent rolls
Mozerella String Chees
Pepperoni slices
Butter
Garlic Salt/Powder

Preheat oven to 375

Spray a pan with cooking spray or use parchment paper (my new best friend in the kitchen!)

Melt a little butter coated with some of the garlic.




Next, roll out your crescent rolls and start adding your pepperoni slices and half a stick of string cheese.


Next, start rolling up and coating with the butter as you roll.



Finish rolling and coating.  Bake for approx 15 minutes and let cool.


I made a couple of pigs in the blanket as well, just in case they didn't like the pizza rolls.  It wasn't neccessary...they devoured them!  You can eat as they are or dip in some pizza or marinara sauce.  These were really good and I think we might even make more today.  Super quick and easy, plus a hit with my kids.  Its a win-win!

This is officially the first idea I have tried from pinterest and I can't wait to try more.  What about you?  Are you additicted to Pinterest?  If so, what have you made from an idea sparked from Pinterest?  If not, let me know your email and I will send you an invite.

This post was inspired by a very crafty and hip mom, Morgan, over at Miss Priss.  I love her blogs about life, family and crafts.  She is very inspiring and reminds me that I am not alone with the challenges we face as a mothers.  Stop by and check out her blog and follow her on Pinterest.

G'nite!

    Bought my first every pack of crescent rolls today, intending to use them to make Strawberry Cream Cheese Rolls for Sunday brunch (also inspired by pinterest!) but having arrived here via Morgans blog I am now wondering if I ought to do this instead! Argh, the choices!

    These are so good, we have made them twice since I posted this blog! I think the only thing better would be dipping them in a pizza or marinara sauce. I'm sure I can find a receipe on Pinterest! I'm so glad Morgan suggested the Pinterest party, I love her blogs. I hope you give these a try and let me know what you think!

100 Days of Holiday Inspiration 2013

Last year I started a series of 100 Days of Holidays and Inspiration and had a lot of fun with it.  I was really hoping to do one again this year, but, I am 12 weeks away from my due date (baby #3!) and I do not feel that I would be able to fulfill my duties of posting to it on a daily, weekly, or even monthly basis.  As you can tell, I've been rather scarce around here this year as it is.  This pregnancy has had a few complications along the way, but everything is looking really good right now.  I've been trying to maintain my focus on keeping myself healthy and preparing for childbirth. That being said, I did want to share with you all some great links and other subscriptions you can sign up for that will provide you all kinds of holiday ideas from fall through Christmas and New Years.  My favorite that I look forward to is the Better Homes and Gardens 100 Days of Holidays .  Some years you will see the same old things, but it's a great refresher.  Click the link abov

Planning an Organized Home - Part 1 - Chore Charts

Image
I started a post on this a few weeks ago and started getting so far in to it that it was looking more like a book than a post.  So, I decided to break it down in to a mini series called: Planning an Organized Home It's a short, six part series that I want to share with you on how I started to get our home organized and in a better routine than we have had in the past.  The more routine, the less whining "why do we have to??".  It becomes a part of every day life for every one in the house. The first thing I worked on were chore charts: one for the kids and one for the parents.  While I have a pretty good routine for my own household chores, having it in writing and staring me down keeps me from falling off track so much.  I searched online for different printable and customizable charts, and ended up finding some pre-loaded with my ancient laptop under Microsoft Works.  If you have Microsoft Excel or Word, you can do the same thing.  I attempted to copy our chart to

Organized Home: Spring Cleaning

Image
This week we welcome spring!  Depending on where you live, that may sound like a joke.  We had spring like weather this weekend, but this week we will drop back to freezing temps at night, and not much better during the day.  I think spring did a little too much springing forward last weekend.  😏 However, our spring break is coming up soon and what better time to do some spring cleaning?  For those of you that do not get a "spring break", have no fear: I have a plan for you as well.  Trying to make that spring cleaning list can seem so endless that you don't know where to begin, or if you even want to.  I always make a list that is unrealistic.  Like there is no way I can do everything possible on my list, and it just stays a list for months and months, until I finally give up and throw it away. Not this year. I have decided to simplify my list.  Well, simplify it after I have made that big, long, never-going-to-get-it-all-done-list.  This is what I added to my H
