Well, I hate to dissent but...these are just soooo sweet. I was a little taken aback. I ate half a sandwich and wrapped up the rest for lunch tomorrow. I am considering how to cut the sweetness without cutting ingredients because they actually go very well together. The cream cheese/marmalade/pecan mix is sooo delish. I will definitely be offering that Christmas morning with bagels...that makes me think of ham or bacon-yes, I think I will add bacon to my other half of sandwich and see if that changes things enough.

I used leftover Thanksgiving turkey and recipe#35267 for this recipe. We just rolled up the fillings in the crescent rolls and let them rise for about 35 minutes and then baked for 9 minutes. These would also be great with cheese added. Very nice for after holiday leftovers! thank you for sharing.
