I know a GREAT yummy and easy recipe using crescent rolls

My mom and cooking-impaired sister both made these, they are easy and so, so yummy!

Another great and very easy app. I like to make is olive dip. I just drain a jar of green olives with pimentos, put them in the food processor, chop finely, then mix in (by hand) about 1/3 to 1/2 cup mayo and some black pepper. The amount of mayo will depend on the amount of olives, but you don't want the dip to be too much mayo, you want the olives to stand out. Serve with pita chips.

Homemade Potato puffs.

Asparagus Wrapped with Prosciutto and Cream cheese.
- 24 pieces of asparagus
- 12 slices of Prosciutto
- 4oz whipped cream cheese
- 1/2t garlic powder

Mix the cream cheese & garlic powder. Slice the Prosciutto in half. Cut the asparagus in half. Take a piece of Prosciutto put a little of the cream cream, place a piece of asparagus, and roll. Bake on 350 for 3-4 minutes.

I personally liked it better with 2 or 3 pieces of asparagus wrapped up together.
