ITALIAN ANTIPASTO SQUARES

Italian Antipasto Squares image

There's a whole antipasto tray baked in the tender crust of these crescent squares, served as either an appetizer or main dish. Courtesy of Pillsbury Bake-Off 41 (Hollywood 2004) and presenter was Patti Chialastri from West Haven, Ct. Update 03/2006....I made these again and instead of using American cheese (personal preference) I just doubled the amt of swiss cheese - have also made them with cheddar and they turned out great! Another Update: 01/09/2009....played around with the selection of cheeses and I used Fontina (it was out of sight!) the American cheese - I don't like so have been looking for another cheese that I could use instead - I guess it still is a work in progress! ;) Update: 11/29/2009 used Asiago cheese this time - it was marvelous - if I say-so myself!
