For those of you that follow me you may have noticed that i’ve been on a bit of a pinning rampage lately:
There’s just no end to the number of creative, amusing, interesting and beautiful things you can find there.
Up until today, I think Chad was getting worried that it was replacing him at my #1 love in life.
That’s until I made him these:
The world’s easiest snack (or finger food…or appetizer…or letting-your-boyfriend-know-you-still-love-him-the-most-food) depending on what you’re making them for.
Being me, I of course tried to make these as healthy as possible. Â Not always easy to do when working with packaged foods, but I think I did alright all things considered!
All you need to do is take some low-sodium pepperoni (Armour makes a great one), a package of crescent rolls (whole wheat if you can find them!) and some reduced-fat string cheese and a couple of rolls later you’ll be happily munching your way through the pile!
Pepperoni and Cheese Crescent Rolls
Makes 8 rolls
Ingredients:
- 1 package of 8 reduced fat crescent rolls
- 4 reduced fat mozzarella string cheese, halved
- 24 slices of lower-sodium pepperoni
- Marinara sauce, heated
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F
- Unroll crescent rolls
- Place 3 slices of pepperoni and halved mozzarella stick on the roll and re-roll it
- Repeat until all the pepperoni and cheese has been used
- Bake for 11-15 minutes
- Serve with warmed marinara sauce for dipping
I think they went over pretty well!

I DID notice your pinning spree, actually…and I LOVE it. Considering I re-pin 90% of what you do.
Also, those rolls…stellar. I’m going to have them waiting for Meeker when he get’s home one night. He’ll flip. 🙂
Cait says
Haha yay! That makes me happy because I actually think about you when I’m pinning a lot of them!
And yeah! Make him these, they’re SO simple but really delicious!

Those are so fun! And while I may not eat meat, the pepperoni could easily be replaced with some veggies!
Cait says
Definitely! Of just plain cheese would be delicious too! 🙂
Justeen says
Awesome, simple recipe! The boyfriend would love this. I like how you healthified it 🙂
Cait says
Thanks! And it definitely is super easy – let me know how they go over if you make them 🙂

I am totally guilty of re-pinning your pins, lots of pretty places and yums! I’m sitting on the couch with my hubby and he thinks those would are husband-approved too 😉
Cait says
Hahaha I love that! And glad you’re liking my pins!

Def made these this summer for a bachelorette party. I thought I was so smart!
Cait says
Haha I love that!
