January Giveaway – 2 Pillsbury Crescent Dough & 3 Oval Platters
Let’s start off this new year with a great giveaway, shall we? Many of you have been baking like crazy during the holiday season (us included) and are probably very familiar with using the Pillsbury Crescent Dough. Pillsbury sent us 2 coupons for the dough, as well as 3 oval plates to help us entertain during the holidays. We were really grateful! They thought it would be even better that we have a giveaway for one of our readers for the exact same package. Not only can you use the crescent dough to make some delicious appetizers or dessert, but you can use the platters to plate them! So here are the details in this giveaway:
1) Leave a comment on this post recommending a dish that we can prepare in the near future on our blog. Maybe it’s your favorite meal that you want us to feature, or something challenging that you’d like us to help you make. This will help us get ideas and motivate us to try different things in the kitchen!
2) Deadline is Sunday, January 10th, 2010. Winner have been chosen! Congrats to Scott from Fight The Fat Foodie.





Would love to see a recipe for foie gras
Boeuf bourguignon! I’ve recently had it and is a dish full of flavor and great to eat on a cold night!
Low Fat/Reduced Sodium English Style fish and chips.
I love Thai cuisine and one of my favorite dishes is massaman curry. I’d love to see a recipe for that with any meat or tofu!
I recently discovered GABA brown rice, and although I enjoy it with just a bit of butter, salt & pepper, I’d love to see some recipes using it.
I would love to see a combo soup of spicy kimchi and savory chicken noodle to help chase these cold temps away!
I’d like to see what you prepared with the crescent dough!
I’d love to have for my vegetarian niece when she visits, an entree that isn’t based on broccoli, isn’t loaded with cheese or eggs (her husband’s high cholesterol is a factor), and has visual appeal as well as flavor!
I’d love to see unique posts using basic ingredients such as mushrooms of all kinds, chicken, cheesecake, shrimp and scallops. Of course not necessarily in the same meal. I ask only because these are my family favourites and I’m starting to run out of ideas. plus you always do a fabulous job of presenting great dishes.
thai chicken pizza or one using smoked salmon!
Thanks for the chance to win. I would like to see a recipe for Beef Wellinton posted, maybe it could be done using the crescent rolls instead of puff pastry?
I would love to see a recipe for simple yet elegant Shepherd’s pie.

Appetizers are even easier when using Pillsbury Crescent dough. Tapenade or asparagus and ham suggestions to get started. I look forward to your recipes.
Thanks,
I need appetizer recipes using cauliflower, broccoli, and cheese!!!

appetizers that incorporate a lot of veggies!
I am interested in learning how to make Moon Cakes for the Moon Festival next year. I heard it’s a complicated recipe.
In this time of economic concerns, I think recipes that use leftovers in creative ways that don’t require running out and buying specialized food is very much needed in the foodblog world.
I’d love to see a fusion recipe using the crescent dough! Great giveaway, happy new year!
Different types of sauces, such as white etc..Also Mexican recipes using crescent dough

I would love to see you prepare a five courses meal using the crescent rolls as one of the ingredient per course.
Platters like those deserve nothing but the finest. I’ll like to see you prepared a traditional aspic terrine with either a whole salmon or with mousse.
I’m kinda hungry for roast duck and would like to see one sitting on one of those. Happy New Year.
After the holiday festivities, I see a lot of people working out and the gym is pact. I think it would be a good time for healthy cooking to match some people’s new year’s resolution. I have a few diabetic recipes, including some desserts to satisfy the taste buds. Maybe you guys could post a full meal that is quick and easy to do.
Salmon! I have yet to tackle it…for some reason it intimidates me a little bit :/
Any baked dish involving brussels sprouts and/or mushrooms, please.
A retro dish that people don’t make as much anymore, but seems exotic now — like aspic!
Since it will be the “Year of the Tiger” (not THAT Tiger!)… a “Tiger-inspired” entree from India… or wherever Tigers roam!

I would love to se a recipe for Gyroes. They are so yummy! Also,a recipe for cream cheese wontons or regular ones. Thanks! Great giveaway!
With the Super Bowl coming up soon, how about some appetizers or snacks? Things like wings (I’m sure you guys could come up with a great idea for a spicy sauce!) or dips or maybe even something fancy.
Make a pot pie! It’s the perfect season for something warm.
appetizers would be cool, superbowl nibbles.
maybe something different or creative with chicken? we eat chicken a lot, but it gets old after awhile!
I’ve been looking for the “perfect” dish to introduce my family to lamb. Would love to know what you would suggest and see it done.
Thanks!
What a fantastic giveaway!!! Hmm what recipe should you make you on your page. What about something a little different? My dad used to make a killer rabbit stew (which I know sounds weird but rabbit is very tasty and available in the store). I think it might be fun to show people that game meat is delicious and easy to prepare.
As a fellow food addict, I would love to see someone else do a braised pork dish. Maybe something with Currants and Golden Raisins. Then i can take a break from this type of thing! Cheers…
I want to see more healthy recipes that are also tasty and delicious! Love your blog!
It’s cold outside. I want Minestrone. I don’t know how to make it. You me your Minestrone!
I’d love to see a healthy version of Chinese entrees, like Beef & Broccoli
*Thanks* for the giveaway!
I would love to see you make some sort of veggie casserole with crescent rolls
Wow I love those oval plates so much! I would like to see you make some sort of crescent roll cups, filled with fruits, or meat or something fun!
I would LOVE to see a recipe for stirfry…something unique and fun!!
Being an English-born Canadian, I am a great lover of mincemeat. I put a layer of
mincemeat on Pillsbury Crescent dough triangles. After rolling them, I sprinkle shredded
cheddar cheese on tops and bake according to pillsbury directions. My family love them
and they were a great hit at Christmas parties.
Oh my gosh I love those plates!!! You should try soup bowls out!
Thank you for sharing. Cheers!
