Using kitchen scissors or sharp knife, make cuts 1 inch apart on each long side of rectangle to within 1/2 inch of filling. Fold strips of dough diagonally over filling, alternating from side to side and pressing to seal. Brush remaining egg mixture over dough.

Very impressive and delicious! I served this to my "Girls' Night Out" group and they loved it! Looks very difficult but it's easy.

This was WONDERFUL, but leave out the salt. All of the ingredients contain salt so adding extra is over kill. However, definitely making again and again and again...

This is a wonderful and easy recipe that captures the flavors of New Orleans. Will make again for sure, over and over!

This recipe was definately tasty and I will try this again. However, the crescent roll didn't capture the authentic experience of the classic New Orleans Muffuletta. It needs a more crusty italian bread rather than the delicate and buttery crescent. I will substitute pizza dough and see what happens.
