Ham and Cheese Crescent Ring is what’s for dinner tonight! On the table in 20 minutes and sure to please even my pickiest eater, it’s a go-to in our household. I’ll say it.  Sometimes you just have to make a meal you know your kids will love.  Nutritionally sound?  Could be better.  Organic?  Definitely not.  Quick, easy, and something they will actually eat?  Ding, ding.  We have a winner.

My daughter couldn’t help but be nosy as I was putting this Ham and Cheese Crescent Ring together.  And isn’t that really the point of it all?  I don’t know about you, but I hate wasting time on a meal she inevitably won’t eat. Of course, I still mandate a “thank you” bite, but I would much rather prefer she enjoy what I put in front of her without fuss.

Aside from being kid-friendly, you can switch out the ingredients for a boatload of combinations.  Switch out the ham and cheese for chicken, bacon and colby jack cheese.  You can even spread on some ranch dressing before adding the filling.  Ooh, what about taco meat with cheese and salsa.  Ok, I’m totally doing that next time.

Ham and Cheese Crescent Ring Assembly

Alright, back to this one.  This no fuss meal will be on the table in less than 20 minutes, and I promise smiles from the kiddos.  Add a salad and some fruit for a complete meal. If you’re feeling advantageous, you can start by whipping up a batch of crescent roll dough from scratch. I’ll be over here using store-bought.
