Cheese en Croute: one package crescent roll on block cream cheese Dill egg Directions:  Spread out crescent roll pinching all seams together to create one full sheet.  Soften cream cheese in microwave.  Sprinkle dill on the crescent roll sheet.  Place cream cheese in center and sprinkle more dill on top of cheese (to taste).  Then pull edges of crescent roll up around the cheese.  Pinch the seams together to create an enclosed pocket around the cheese.  Brush one beaten egg over the top of the crescent dough.  Sprinkle more dill.  Bake for approx. 20 min. at 350.  It comes out golden brown.  Serve on Cheese board with small cheese knife and crackers.  So yummy and so easy! French Tenderloin Bites: French Baguette Beef Tenderloin Horseradish sauce Cook off Beef Tenderloin in oven (slow cook for best results).  Cook to Medium temperature.  Cut French baguette in to small bite-size slices.  Spread horseradish sauce onto baguette slices.  Cut tenderloin into small bite-size slices.  Top horseradish sauce with a slice of tenderloin.  They are simple but delicious!  And also easy to reheat! lovemylhasa on "Favorite Holiday Recipes" http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/favorite-holiday-recipes#post-454871 Sat, 07 Nov 2009 05:59:21 +0000 lovemylhasa 454871@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ I dont really have any recipes for desserts, but I do have an awesome way to make the juiciest turkey ever. I have the smallest kitchen in the world and last year my whole family came in for Christmas. I needed to make a turkey but my oven in TINY, so I decided to grill it. So the turkey didnt dry out I soaked it in a brine over night, and put it on the grill in a disposable aluminum pan, with some apple juice in the botton, over medium heat for about 3 hours. It was the best turkey ever! My mom was so mad because she said it was better then any turkey she ever made, haha. For the brine, I mixed some warm water with about half a cup of salt and half a cup of sugar, I also added some rosemary, alittle bit of garlic, and some pepper. The brine is not an exact recipe, you can really do anything you want.

In a large bowl, add mixture to cream cheese. Shape into 3-4 balls. Cover in Saran Wrap and refrigerate until an hour before you are ready to serve and let it thaw for an hour so it is easy to spread. Serve with graham crackers. Have a knife available to spread with.    Camrah on "Favorite Holiday Recipes" http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/favorite-holiday-recipes#post-454040 Fri, 06 Nov 2009 17:27:23 +0000 Camrah 454040@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ Christmas Cookies!
