I have been told recently by a (dear) friend that my blog has several pages of desserts, but not many salads, breads or appetizers or veggies. So am going to work on that, but I have to say up front, that is just where my heart is, with gooey, yummy desserts, not carrot sticks or lettuce leaves. Hum………maybe that is why Weight Watchers keeps calling me and telling me I need to come to a meeting. Anyway, I never could get too excited about veggies, after all, I am pretty happy just opening a can of green beans, add a little bacon grease, add a little salt and pepper, put them on your plate and hurry and get to the dessert, the most important part of the meal.
But…..these bacon-onion rolls are a great way to down canned green beans or any other veggie or soup. Try them, you will love them!.
1 laf (1 pound) frozen bread dough, thawed
1/4 cup butter, melted and divided
1/2 pound sliced bacon, cooked and crumbled
1/2 cup chopped onion
On a lightly floured surface, roll out dough to 1/4 in thickness. Cut with a 2 1/2 in biscuit cutter (*you can always use the open end of a cup of glass if you do not have a biscuit cutter)
Using 3 tables of the melted butter, brush each roll with a pastry brush . Place 1 teas of bacon and onion onhalf of each roll. Fold over and pinch to seal. Place pinched edge up, in a greased 9 in. square baking pan, forming three rows of six. Brush tops with remaining butter. Let rise until doubled, about 30 minutes. Bake at 350 degrees for about 25 to 30 mins or until tops are golden brown.
*It never hurts to use a little more butter which you can also add a little garlic powder.
