Lorraine Maggio - Manlius, New York
Bake-Off® Contest 39, 2000 Prize Winner
Versatile, classic ingredients are wrapped in a flaky crust to create a fabulously filling dish for a special brunch, elegant lunch or family dinner.


   3/4 pound cooked ham, chopped (2 1/4 cups)
   1 cup frozen broccoli florets, thawed
   1 cup (4 oz.) shredded Swiss cheese
   1 (4 1/2-ounce) jar sliced mushrooms, drained
   1/2 cup mayonnaise or salad dressing
   1 tablespoon honey mustard
   2 (8-ounce) cans refrigerated crescent rolls
   1 egg white, beaten
   2 tablespoons slivered almonds


Heat oven to 375°F. Spray cookie sheet with nonstick cooking spray. In large bowl, combine ham, broccoli, cheese, mushrooms, mayonnaise and mustard; mix well.

Unroll both cans of dough. Place dough with long sides together on sprayed cookie sheet, forming 15 x 12-inch rectangle. Press edges and perforations to seal.

Spoon and spread ham mixture in 6-inch strip lengthwise down center of dough. With scissors or sharp knife, make cuts 1 1/2 inches apart on long sides of dough to within 1/2 inch of filling. Twisting each strip once, alternately cross strips over filling. Tuck short ends under; press to seal. Brush dough with beaten egg white; sprinkle with almonds.

Bake at 375°F. for 28 to 33 minutes or until deep golden brown. Cool 5 minutes. Cut into crosswise slices.
