  • April 24th: National Pigs in a Blanket Day!

    Easter may fall on April 24th this year, but let's not let that overshadow what the 24th is really celebrating - National Pigs in a Blanket Day!

    How can anyone resist these delicious little finger foods? Not only are they simple to put together, but they can be combined with lots of different dipping sauces and a variety of "blankets"!

    My all time favorite is to roll cocktail wienies in Pillsbury crescent rolls with a strip of swiss cheese and dipping in a spicy brown mustard. But the possibilities really are endless, and I could go for any of them!

    Blankets:

    • crescent rolls
    • pizza dough
    • pretzel dough
    • croissants
    • puff pastry

    Add-ins:

    • any type of cheese
    • any sliced meat
    • pesto
    • sauerkraut
    • refried beans
    • sliced onion
    • roasted peppers
    • bacon
    • jalapenos

    Dipping Sauces:

    • ketchup
    • mustard
    • barbecue sauce
    • cheese sauce
    • marinara
    • teriyaki
    • sweet chili
    • honey
    • ranch

    How do you like your pigs in a blanket?
