Check out these great blog posts from the last week—there are some really innovative uses of Pillsbury products!
Looking for a simple, yet savory Italian appetizer to serve your guests? Take a look at this Garlic Tomato Bruschetta that uses Pillsbury’s Refrigerated Crusty French Loaf and yields 12 servings. http://angiessimplecooking.wordpress.com/2009/06/19/garlic-tomato-bruschetta/
This Raspberry-Rhubarb Pie recipe, presented by the Professional Medical Corp blog, uses the Pillsbury’s Refrigerated Pie Crust and features a “velvety filling” of fresh raspberries, rhubarb, tapioca, cornstarch, and a black liqueur known as Crème de Cassis. http://professionalmedical.wordpress.com/2009/06/17/raspberry-rhubarb-pie-recipe/
A recent post by the celebration-themed blog, “It’s a Gift”, offers 14 different ways to make stuffed breadsticks. The “super easy” base recipe suggests baking some Pillsbury brand breadsticks and then twisting them around any one (or more) of the suggested filling arrangements. http://itsagift.wordpress.com/2009/06/18/super-easy-stuffed-breadsticks/
Another use of Pillsbury’s Refrigerated Crusty French Loaf can be seen in this tasty-looking Marmalade Pecan Spiral Coffee Cake; a sure favorite for all you cinnamon roll fans out there. http://urbandebris.typepad.com/urban_debris_journal/2009/06/marmaladepecan-spiral-coffee-cake---ingredients-14-cup-butter-softened-12-cup-packedlight-brown-sugar-1-cup-pecan-pieces1.html
