My family loved these rolls. My little girl insisted on eating 2 of them and used her second one to make a sandwich with her chicken (she doesn't really like meat). She said the roll was so good it made the chicken good, too. She actually said "these are quite delightful". It made me smile. I have no idea where she learned that one! I didn't have any sesame seeds but other than that, made them exactly as posted. They came out looking very pretty. Thanks for posting this! Made for Pick a Chef Spring 2009.

These were great! My crescent rolls wouldn't stay in rectangle shape (they broke apart into the triangles) - so I stuffed them with the green onions ans cheese and made little gooey pockets of goodness. I followed as directed except I omitted the sesame seeds (didn't have any) and the parsley flakes (forgot in my haste to bake these goodies!). I wouldn't hesitate to recommend these rolls to anyone!

"It all begins with crescent rolls" and ends with very happy tummies! I loved the ease of making these rolls. They went very well with our dinner. I did skip out on the sesame seeds (kids dislike) but everything else was to the directions. Thanks Julie for another great recipe idea!
