Step 1

Ready-made bread dough is cut into triangles and filled with all the familiar ingredients. These crescents are not only easy on the budget, but make for easy eating and entertaining. A great snack too.

Step 2

TIP: Substitute your favorite pizza toppings (mushrooms, sautaed onions, anchovies) for the green pepper and sausage. Frozen bread dough also comes in whole wheat, a good replacement for the white dough.

Step 3

1. Thaw frozen bread in refrigerator overnigh or at room temperature 2 to 3 hours.

Step 4

2. On a lightly floured surface, roll out each loaf into a circle, about 10-inches in diameter. (If dough is difficult to roll, pat or stretch dough with your hands until 1/4-inch thick.) Brush surface with olive oil.

Step 5

3. With pizza cutter or sharp knife, cut each circle into 8 triangles or wedges.

Step 6

4. Generously spread surface with pizza sauce to which oregano and garlic are added. Leave about 1/4-inch margin on each side. Sprinkle with cheeses, green pepper and pepperoni.

Step 7

5. Roll up each triangle beginning from the wide end. Curve ends to form crescents. Place on lightly oiled baking sheets. Brush tops with egg white.

Step 8

Sprinkle with additional oregano and/or Parmesan cheese.

Step 9

6. Bake at 450iF for about 15 minutes or until crescents are golden brown.
