Super Bowl Snacks

This is the first of three posts about yummy things I’ve made recently. I know I’m not a gourmet chef or anything, but hey — I still enjoying sharing some of the things I make!

First up: John and Kelly invited us over to watch the Super Bowl a couple weeks ago, and I took snacks!

First up were these Spinach and Feta Cheese Bundles. They were a bit messy to make, mainly because I had trouble fitting all the ingredients inside my little dough squares, but they turned out very tasty.

In fact, I liked them so much that I made another batch later that week when Jose was in Corpus Christi for his mom’s surgery. I only made one change — I brushed the dough with a little bit of olive oil before I filled it with stuff. I may have just eaten spinach and feta bundles for dinner. Maybe.

I also made Pizza Pinwheels. Although these still tasted pretty good, they were very greasy. (Both of these photos were taken before I baked them, so you don’t see the greasiness.) In retrospect, I think this was due partly to the crescent roll dough (which is always kind of buttery) and partly due to the fact that I altered the recipe a bit and added pizza sauce to the rolls themselves (instead of just using it as a dipping sauce).

Still, they were tasty and I may make them again sometime without incorporating the sauce inside the roll. In other words, I’ll follow the recipe the way it’s written. Go figure.
