Savory Cheesy Pinwheels
Welcome back to #BrunchWeek 2019! A week chock full of fantastic recipes that you can add to your brunch menus: beverages, savories, sweets, casseroles, and everything in between.
Today I’m introducing Savory Cheesy Pinwheels. If you happened to miss my other additions to this delicious week, I will link them below.Be sure to scroll all the way down to find the complete list of today’s recipes and all the details for #BrunchWeek including giveaway details. You don’t want to miss out.
Savory Cheesy Pinwheels need to be discussed and eaten! They are easy and customizable and are not only perfect for brunch but alongside soup, salads and so many other dishes.
The basis of Savory Cheesy Pinwheels comes from a refrigerator staple that you can often find in my refrigerator. Good old crescent rolls! Next is a mixture of cream cheese, chopped fresh parsley, garlic, and chopped roasted red bell pepper.
But wait, the final ingredient is what MAKES Savory Cheesy Pinwheels extra delicious! Cabot Bacon Cheddar Shredded Cheese. Holy yum! With full flavors of hickory smoke and bacon, it adds to the savory flavors just perfectly.
Cabot Creamery is a generous supporter of #BrunchWeek and sent me an outstanding selection of their delicious cheese varieties. I can’t say I have a favorite because they are all so good, but I will tell you…check them out and start enjoying them too.
Give these a try with your favorite flavored cream cheese, a different variety of seasonings or herbs. I know what my family will eat and these certainly were a hit.
