Healthier Pigs in Blankets

Everyone knows how to make pig in a blanket. A good old little smoky sausage link wrapped in a canned flattened biscuit dough and bake in the oven.

My kids, with no exception, love these. I made a slightly healthier version – with turkey sausage links, lower in sodium, lower in fat, wrapped in fluffy flaky crescent dough.

Ingredients:

1 package of low sodium low fat turkey dog, boiled to remove more sodium, they still taste pretty good, believe me.

1 can of crescent dough.

Method:

Pre-heat oven to temperature indicated on the crescent can.

Boil turkey sausage in a small pot to ensure they are fully cooked through, and remove more sodium. They will slightly puff up a bit.

Open the can of crescent dough, wrap each sausage link in the crescent triangle, starting from the wide end towards the point end.

Lay the on a sheet tray and bake per instruction of the crescent can, and enjoy!
