I am a born and raised Utahn and love my state. With that love comes a love for products of Utah. Since 1937, Cache Valley has been offering delicious cheeses using only the highest-quality ingredients to Utahans and surrounding areas. It is the perfect ingredient to use in these Monte Cristo Crescents for fall entertaining.
Their dedication to quality means I can expect wholesome, expertly crafted cheese every time. So whenever possible, I reach for Cache Valley cheese to use in the kitchen. With a wide range of products from chunks to slices, Cache Valley has something for everyone and for every occasion.
Fall is my favorite season and with that comes fall entertaining. Today I have a recipe for you today that would work perfectly as an appetizer at your next gathering or it also works great for family mealtime too!
I love a good monte cristo sandwich and this recipe makes a smaller version of that using crescent roll dough, making the perfect appetizer sized version. I love the savory flavor of the turkey and ham paired with the creamy goodness of Cache Valley muenster cheese. It all gets wrapped in flaky crescent dough to create a bundle of goodness. Oh, and don’t forget about the sweet fruit jam to dip these babies in!
I know your guest will love these as much as my family does. They are so simple to put together but look amazingly beautiful to serve. Be sure to give them a dusting of powdered sugar right before serving.
