HERB CHEESE CESCENT ROLLS
I'm not sure if you want my short version of this or Paula Deens, so I will give both. Mine is quick & easy and still tasted as good.
Mindi's version: Crescent rolls (quanity Depends on how many people you are serving)
Then find any flavor spreadable cheese (Not cream cheese). I used Rondele' Garlic and herb.
Spread cheese on each crescent and roll. Use directions for baking on the package. These were quick and a good appetizer on New Years. They would also taste good as your dinner roll.
Paula's Version: Sorry it Has way to many instructions. If you want her version Call me or e-mail me.
