Hack a can of our Pillsbury™ French bread to make soft and buttery Italian-herbed rolls that cook on the countertop while you use your oven for the main dish. Before you know it, you’ve made an entire meal without spending hours in the kitchen (always a win!).

  • tip 2
    Arrange rolls evenly in slow cooker so they all cook through at the same time.
  • tip 3
