Cheese Stuffed Croissant Rolls and Marinara Sauce


I have made homemade marinara sauce a few times. It is easy to make. I do not measure my ingredients. I add as little or as much seasoning as I need to get the taste how I want it.  Tonight I added a few more ingredients than the previous times I made it.

1 can of diced tomatoes.
Olive oil.
Salt.
Pepper.
Oregano.
Basil.
Parsley.
Italian Seasoning.
Sugar.

Cook on low heat until hot. Make sure to stir your sauce while it is cooking to keep it from sticking to the pot and boiling over. 


 Cheese stuffed croissant rolls are a favorite of mine to make.  I baked one batch with garlic butter sauce and one batch without.

Garlic Butter Sauce.

Melt one stick of margarine in the microwave for 1 minute or until melted.

Next I add the following: 

Olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and oregano. Add as much as you like until you get the flavor you want.

Open your can of croissant rolls. I used Pillsbury brand. Lay them out on a baking sheet I like to cover my baking sheet with aluminum foil. The foil keeps what you bake from sticking to the baking sheet. 

Next take a spoon and spread your garlic sauce onto the croissant roll dough. Add mozzarella cheese and roll into croissant roll shapes. Spread more garlic sauce on top of the croissant rolls and sprinkle Parmesan cheese on top. Follow the baking instructions on the back of the croissant rolls packaging.

To make cheese stuffed croissant rolls without garlic follow every step except making the garlic butter sauce. Instead melt one stick of margarine in the microwave and spread onto your dough following the rest of the instructions above.

These go great with homemade pizza and shrimp fettuccini alfredo.

Let me know if you try these!

Appetizers for Supper

Last night my Mama and I made appetizers for supper. Ever so often we like putting together a variety of finger foods for a quick and easy meal. In addition to a store bought already cooked rottisseri chicken, Mama cooked conecuh sausage and helped me put together ingredients for some simple appetizers I wanted to try. Instead of buying already made dips in a jar I decided to make two. Ranch Dip. You will need an 8oz container of sour cream (larger if feeding a lot of people.) and a packet of dry ranch ingredients usually found in the store with the salad dressing. Mix the two ingredients together and you have a great tasting ranch dip. I prefer it over premade. Onion Dip. Like the ranch dip I used two ingredients. One 8oz container of sour cream and one packet of Lipton Onion Recipe Soup and Dip Mix. Mix the two ingredients together. I preferred this over premade as well. Olives and Cheese. For this appetizer I used green olives with stuffed pimento, g

Italian Dressing Pasta Salad

One night when I made homemade pizza I decided I wanted to make an Italian Pasta too. Since I had left over ingredients from my pizza's it was super easy to put together.   I found a recipe I liked on Pinterest I will link below. I did not follow the measurements and left out some of the ingredients.  It turned out delicious!  Ingredients 1 Box Tri-Color Rotini.  Olive Oil. 1 Bottle Kraft Zesty Italian Dressing. Mushrooms. Black Olives. Green Olives. Grape Tomatoes. Shredded Parmesan Cheese. Shredded Mozzarella Cheese.  Shredded Monterey Jack Cheese. Shredded Colby Jack and Cheddar Cheese Blend.  Salt. Pepper.   Use the directions on the back of the Rotini box to cook your pasta. Add water to a pot and bring to a boil on the stove, you can add your pasta before the water begins to boil, I use a gas stove so I add my noodles before the water begins to boil. Add olive oil or vegetable oil to your water along with salt and pepper.  When your pasta is tender it is ready.  Let your past
