Chicken Cordon Bleu Pinwheels
It’s the first day of our Spring Break Vacation and there are 2 inches of freshly fallen snow on the ground. Perfect. Lucky for us we’re headed to sunny Las Vegas later this week, and hopefully, the weather will be more sunny and bright.
Last week we were teased with 70-degree weather here! That’s Utah for you, if you don’t like the weather, just wait a few days and it will change!
Anyway, cold wintery weather calls for warm comfort food, and these Chicken Cordon Bleu Pinwheels are just that. They’re savory, cheesy, and sweet with a Honey Mustard Glaze on the top.
They are easy to make and my husband is a super big fan. He loves any dish that mixes savory and sweet.
Start with Crescent roll dough, you can buy them in sheets now, without the triangles and it’s super convenient for any sandwich creation you can think up.
Top the dough with your favorite kind of ham. 12 slices should do it!
Next comes the Swiss Cheese. It would be easier to buy it pre-sliced, but I just did manual labor and sliced it myself! Haha!
Next, top your cheese with chicken slices. I just used 8 because I didn’t want to overload the dough, but I think it could have handled more, just go slow when you roll.
Start at one end and gently and tightly roll it up!
Now slice that bad boy into 1-inch pieces
Arrange your pinwheels in a greased casserole dish. It should make 12 rolls.
Melt 3/4 stick of butter in a saucepan, add 2 Tablespoons of spicy brown mustard, and 1/4 cup of honey and mix it up!
Pour it over the top of your pinwheels and use a pastry brush to spread it into each little crevice!
Crush up a cup of croutons in a bag with a rolling pin. My bag was almost empty so I just used the bag they came in.
Sprinkle the croutons on the top of your pinwheels. Bread crumbs would work here just fine, but I just like the flavor of the Olive Garden croutons.
Bake at 375 for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and rolls are golden brown.
