Thanksgiving Day Treats – Quick and Easy by Nikki Boxler
The holidays are upon us which means we spend most of our time in the woods, working and of course running errands.
With so much to do and so little time, I like to have recipes on the back burner (pun intended) that I can turn to when I am in a time crunch. Here are a few quick snacks that the entire family will enjoy. The best part is both recipes share the same 3 core ingredients!
Bison jalapeño cream cheese rolls
What you will need:
- 1 package of crescent rolls
- 1/2 lb bison meat cooked (or the meat of your choice…perhaps venison)
- 1/2 cup cream cheese
- 2 jalapeno peppers, chopped
Step 1: Brown the ground bison.
Step 2: Chop the jalapeño peppers and mix them with the cream cheese.
Step 3: Separate the crescent rolls, then spread the cream mixture on the roll, top with bison meet and roll up the dough.
Step 4: Bake the rolls at 375 degrees for 10 minutes or until golden brown and enjoy.
