Crescent Dogs

Finally got a chance to try the Crescent Dog Recipe. Easy to fix and makes a good meal. To prepare them by the Pillsbury Recipe they are 290 calories and 13 carbs and as good as they look and sounded I wanted to knock off some of the calories. So I used Ball Park Smoked White Turkey Franks, Pillsbury Reduced Crescent Rolls, and Kraft 2% Deli Sliced Sharp Cheddar. The recipe calls for you to put a slit in the Hot Dog and insert the Cheese. Instead I used a half a piece of Sliced Cheese and placed the Dog on top of the Cheese and then wrapped them. I baked them at 375 degrees for 17 minutes. They taste fantastic! I mean what's not to like, Turkey Franks, Crescent Rolls, and Cheese! I put a dab of French's Yellow Mustard on it before eating. Give them a try the leaner way you'll love them! I left the Pillsbury Recipe along with Pillsbury Link below.
