ITALIAN ANTIPASTO SQUARES



Italian Antipasto Squares image

There's a whole antipasto tray baked in the tender crust of these crescent squares, served as either an appetizer or main dish. Courtesy of Pillsbury Bake-Off 41 (Hollywood 2004) and presenter was Patti Chialastri from West Haven, Ct. Update 03/2006....I made these again and instead of using American cheese (personal preference) I just doubled the amt of swiss cheese - have also made them with cheddar and they turned out great! Another Update: 01/09/2009....played around with the selection of cheeses and I used Fontina (it was out of sight!) the American cheese - I don't like so have been looking for another cheese that I could use instead - I guess it still is a work in progress! ;) Update: 11/29/2009 used Asiago cheese this time - it was marvelous - if I say-so myself!

Time 1h

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 (10 ounce) cans refrigerated crescent dinner rolls
¼ pound thinly sliced boiled ham
¼ pound thinly sliced provolone cheese
¼ pound thinly sliced Swiss cheese
¼ pound thinly sliced Genoa salami
¼ pound thinly sliced pepperoni sausage
1 (12 ounce) jar roasted red peppers, drained, cut into thin strips
3 eggs
3 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
½ teaspoon ground black pepper

  • In a bowl, beat the eggs lightly, and stir in the parmesan cheese and black pepper. Pour 3/4 of this mixture over the peppers. Unroll the second package of dough, and place over the top of the peppers. Brush with the remaining egg mixture. Cover with aluminum foil.

Tips:

  • Prep your ingredients in advance: Chop the vegetables and cheese, and cook the meat ahead of time to save time during assembly.
  • Use a variety of fillings: This is a great way to use up leftover meats, cheeses, and vegetables. Get creative and experiment with different flavor combinations.
  • Don't overstuff the rolls: Otherwise, they will be difficult to fold and seal. It's better to have a few smaller squares than one large, overstuffed square that falls apart.
  • Seal the rolls tightly: This will prevent the filling from leaking out during baking. Use a fork to crimp the edges of the dough together.
  • Bake the rolls until golden brown: This will ensure that the dough is cooked through and the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Conclusion:

Antipasto squares are a versatile and delicious appetizer that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are perfect for parties, potlucks, or simply as a snack. With a little planning and preparation, you can easily make these squares at home using ingredients that you probably already have on hand. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy appetizer, give these antipasto squares a try. You won't be disappointed!
