Another baby shower recipe. Most of us probably remember these from childhood; cut up hot dogs wrapped in a biscuit and baked. Ahhh, it was a delight. I haven't seen them around in years, almost erased from memory, until Kylie brought a different take on them to work one day. Little smokies wrapped in crescent rolls and baked. Wow, what a treat, and it's slightly more grown-up.

Pigs in a Blanket
INGREDIENTS
1 pkg of lil smokie sausages
1 can crescent rolls
DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven according to directions on crescent roll package. Unroll dough but leave intact two triangles of crescent rolls. (You will have four rectangles). Pinch the seams together and roll the rectangles out with a rolling pin so you have more surface area to work with.
Using a pizza cutter, cut lengthwise into thin triangles; approximately ten strips per rectangle. Wrap each strip starting at the wider end around the sausage. Place on a baking pan sprayed with non-stick cooking oil. Cook according to package directions.
A good way to keep the little piggy's warm after baking — set a slow cooker to low and place a towel in the bottom and around the sides to prevent soggy rolls. (As seen in above pic). Note: the towel will absorb a lot of moisture including grease. Make sure it's not your best towel or just prepare to wash it well.

Man, I love these, and its the one meal I know how to make (only because I was recently taught). I go with a full hot dog, in a crescent roll, all wrapped in bacon.
I'm hungry.
