Veggie Pizza

This is one of my favorite apps.


1 package crescent rolls
1 package cream cheese
2 tbls Miracle Whip
1/2 package of Hidden Valley Ranch powder mix


Chop lots of veggies (I use a food processor) below are my favs:

• carrots


• broccoli


• cauliflower


• green peppers

Once chopped set aside.

Mix: Miracle Whip, cream cheese, ranch powder mix

Roll crescent rolls flat
Bake a little less that the package recommends (you all know your ovens so base "a little less" on your knowledge) and let cool

Once the crust has cooled spread the cream cheese mix evenly and top with chopped veggies.

Refrigerate for an hour and and cut into bite size pieces.

Sausage Stuffed Jalapenos

With football season here, I thought a yummy appetizer recipe was in order. My husband loves these, and they've been a hit with friends too.

Sausage Stuffed Jalapenos

* 1 lb. ground pork sausage
* 1 (8 oz.) package of cream cheese, softened
* 1 cup shredded parmesan cheese
* 1 lb. large fresh jalapeno peppers, halved lengthwise and seeded (it is best to use plastic/rubber gloves for this process)
* Ranch dressing (optional)

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees.

2. Place sausage in a skillet over medium heat, and cook until evenly brown. Drain grease.

3. In a bowl, mix the sausage, cream cheese, and parmesan cheese. Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the sausage mixture into each jalapeno half. Arrange stuffed halves into baking dishes.

4. Bake 20 minutes in the preheated oven, until bubbly and lightly browned. Serve with Ranch dressing.
