Mexican Crescent Wreath Appetizer

This. Is. So. Yummy.

We eat a big ol' Mexi-feast (almost) every Christmas Eve and this appetizer has become a family favorite.


The wreath is made from crescent rolls, topped with a yummy Mexican spread, and decked out with chopped avocados, tomatoes, black olives and grated cheese.

To make the wreath, open 2 cans of crescent rolls and flatten them out using a rolling pin.

Slice the ends off, then cut each log into 16 strips.

Place a dish or glass upside-down on an ungreased cookie sheet and lay the strips in a wreath-shape around it.


Remove the glass and bake at 375 for 15-18 minutes, until golden brown.

Cool completely, then add the spread (recipe below) and top with cheese and veggies.

Spread:
In a mixer, combine a block of cream cheese (at room temperature) with 1/2 cup mayonnaise and 2 T. taco seasoning.


Topping Options:
grated cheese, chopped tomatoes, chopped avocados, sliced black olives, chopped green onions, jalepenos


It's a crowd-pleaser! Feliz Navidad!
