Appetizers are a great way to serve up festive eats. Their bite-sized servings and rich, filling flavors offer an indulgent treat for party-goers. But making a variety of appetizers can be expensive and time consuming. Not with this incredible recipe from Pillsbury®! A tube of Pillsbury® crescent rolls makes cocktail party prep a snap.


To assemble these pretty Pesto Crescent Swirls, all you need is a tube of Pillsbury® crescents, a bottle of traditional basil pesto and a bottle of sun-dried tomato or roasted red pepper pesto.


Open the tube of Pillsbury® crescent dough. Separate into two pieces; unroll each piece. Spread a thin layer of green pesto on one half of the dough and red pesto on the other half.
