Kielbasa (Smoked Sausage) Roll-Ups

Submitted by jVo6236

"I can't remember where I got this recipe. I just know they're quick and easy and I make them often! Try different mustard blends and add caramelized onion for extra flavor! :-) HINT: Slice each kielbasa chunk into 2-4 discs and lay them down (like fallen dominoes) before rolling them into the crescent roll. Then it's not quite as big of a bite!"

These were really great. I modified the recipe a little: I used just 2Tbs butter and melted it with a few spoonfuls of apricot jam, then I used double the dijon-horseradish. They were sticky from the jam, but it tastes perfect with the mustard and the onions. GREAT way to use kielbasa, something different than potatoes and sauerkraut.

More than five stars for sure... great recipe. I used the healthy sausage and left out the butter and onions. We had ours with honey mustard sauce Recipe #58125 and German Curry Sauce for Wurst Recipe #37911. It was the Adult Fave for Christmas Brunch. Thanks!

Great football food. I used smoked sausage dogs (hot dog size). Be prepared to make alot if you're feeding guys. They go fast.
