Spam, Broccoli & Cheese Wreath

Submitted by Pvt Amys Mom

"This started out as a ham and swiss cheese wreath but the kids like it better with Spam and cheddar. It is actually quite tasty and has become a favorite at our house. I was having problems finding canned ham at our market and tried it with Spam, surprisingly, it was saltier with the ham than with Spam."

 

• Ready In: 45mins
• Ingredients: 6
• Serves: 4

ingredients

• 1 (8 ounce) can refrigerated crescent dinner rolls
• 2 cups fresh broccoli florets
• 1 (8 ounce) can ham (or approx 1/2 large can of Spam)
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 tablespoon mustard
• 1⁄4 cup chopped onion

directions

1. After you have made this once, you can play with the ingredients- I like TONS of broccoli and just a little Spam and Cheese.
2. Preheat oven to 375°.
3. Cut broccoli into bite size pieces.
4. Place in large microwaveable bowl.
5. Add 2 Tablespoons water and the chopped onion.
6. Microwave approx 1 1/2 minutes (Just to"tenderize" the broccoli).
7. Cut Spam into tiny cubes and saute in small frying pan just to brown the meat.
8. Remove Broccoli from microwave, drain the water off and add the mustard, spam& cheese.
9. Cover a cookie sheet pan with foil.
10. Unroll the crescent rolls and place in a circle on the sheet pan.
11. The wide ends of the rolls should be overlapping in the middle with the pointed ends hanging off the side of the pan (See Photos).
12. Place the Spam mixture in a circle around the wide ends on the cookie sheet.
13. Fold the pointed ends over the mixture and tuck underneath.
14. Bake for 25 minutes or until the crescent rolls are golden brown.
15. (Lift one of the rolls and look underneath to be sure it has browned and is not mushy or raw dough).

I used baked ham lunchmeat in place of the spam and used half grated cheddar and half smoked gouda. I used what I had on hand. Any type of your favorite cheese will do. I also used deli brown mustard and will try dijon next time. It was a delicious quick dinner.
