Before the salad and after the cranberry orange bread, there were sausage pinwheels. With only two ingredients, phyllo dough and ground sausage. It's a great appetizer in a pinch!
Without a rolling pin on hand, a bottle of wine does the trick!
A Silpat is one of the best kitchen products on the market, and makes this appetizer even easier to serve
Slice and then toss in the oven until the puff pastry is golden brown
Enjoy!
Ingredients: 1 pkg phyllo dough and 1 pkg of Jimmy Dean ground sausage
Recipe: Preheat oven to 350. At room temperate roll out 1 sheet of phyllo dough into a square. Spread a thin layer of sausage onto the raw dough (about half the package) Once spread evenly take one side of the square and start rolling to the opposite end, like you would a rug. Next, slice the log into 1/4 " pieces - place on a greased baking sheet, or better yet, use a silpat. Cook time is approximately 15 min. or until golden brown.
Sausage Pinwheels. while the name brings to mind a delightful snack for the kiddies, actually turned out to be the perfect compliment to the wine we were "sipping" on all day, as well as the perfect solution to a pre-dinner snack.
