Favorite Recipes: Veggie Holiday Wreath
VEGGIE HOLIDAY WREATH This recipe was adapted from the Pampered Chef catalog in Fall/Winter 2000. What was once an experiment to get our family to try a vegetarian main dish for Thanksgiving, has become a hit among our family members! They now request the "veggie wreath" every Thanksgiving and Christmas, and are even making it on their own now. Combine the following ingredients the night before you make this dish. Cover and refrigerate overnight: 1/2 cup chopped celery 3/4 cup dried cranberries or tart cherries 8 oz Swiss cheese 2 cup chopped pecans (toasted if you want) 1 medium sweet onion, finely chopped and sautéed 8 veggie sausage patties, cooked and crumbled 3/4 cup mayonnaise (or vegan cashew aioli) 2-3 TBSP honey Dijon 1 tsp cracked pepper salt to taste The following ingredients will be used when making the wreath the next day: 4 8 oz packages of refrigerated crescent rolls (or make your own) whites of 1 egg, beaten Lay out crescent roll
