When I think of spring, I think of a lot of family gatherings. Between Easter, Mother’s Day and both the kids’ birthdays it seems like we are having people over almost every weekend. We open up our screened-in porch and try to get outside as much as possible. We love this time of the year and look forward to the constant buzz of friends and family. I am always looking for great recipes for entertaining. These spinach crescent roll appetizers are always a big hit. When Pillsbury asked if I would create an appetizer with their crescent rolls, I knew that these would be the perfect recipe.
The great thing about these spinach rolls is that they are so quick and easy to make. The special ingredient is the buttery, flaky Pillsbury crescent rolls that I used to wrap up the spinach filling.

It’s nice to have an extra package on hand during the spring so I picked up a few.
