This Jalapeno Popper Crescent Ring recipe makes a delicious appetizer any time of year!

Jalapeno Popper Crescent Ring Recipe: An easy appetizer recipe made by stuffing a Pillsbury crescent ring with jalapeno popper dip. Easy make-ahead party recipe.

Party season has begun! The period from Halloween to New Year’s Day is filled with so many holiday parties and family get gatherings. Because holiday dinners are a little more involved, I like to keep my appetizers simple. For some casual parties, I just serve easy appetizer recipes and quick finger foods. I think it is more important to get together with friends and family than it is to serve an involved sit-down dinner with multiple courses. Simple recipes allow you to spend more time making memories that you’ll cherish for years. However, easy doesn’t have to mean boring or bland!

I was at my local Safeway picking up items for a special dinner and grabbed a few cans of Pillsbury™ Crescent Rolls. I was originally planning on using them to make rolls to accompany the dinner, but then I thought it would be fun to use them to make a scrumptious appetizer by stuffing the crescent roll dough with my Jalapeno Popper Dip to make a unique crescent ring recipe. I made another loop around the store to pick up jalapenos, bacon, and cream cheese.

When I make my jalapeno popper dip recipe, I add mayonnaise to make the dip a little creamer. I left the mayo out of this recipe, because I wanted the jalapeno popper dip to be a little firmer to add shape to the Jalapeno Popper Crescent Ring Recipe.

  • 6 jalapeno peppers, deseeded and diced
  • 8 green onions, thinly sliced
  • 12 ounces of cream cheese, softened

Preheat oven to 375 degrees and grease a pizza pan.

In a medium bowl, combine the diced jalapeno, onion, cream cheese, bacon, cheddar cheese, and Monterey Jack cheese. Stir until thoroughly combined.

Separate 1 can of crescent roll dough into 4 rectangles. On a large greased pizza pan, arrange the rectangles perpendicular to each other to form a cross. Corners of one side should touch while leaving a square space in the center.

    This is a wonderful recipe. My family loved it. The second time I made it I didn’t have any bacon and used crab meat instead and it was also delicious. I’m making this recipe for all the potlucks I’m invited to. Thanks for sharing.

On Premeditated Leftovers I share simple recipes made with whole foods, practical shopping tips, time saving techniques, and meal planning strategies. I also share tips for minimizing food waste, so more of the food that is purchased ends up on the table.

While volunteering as a budget counselor, I realized that food is the element of most people’s budgets where they have the greatest control. I set out to develop low-cost recipes from scratch to prove it’s possible to create delicious meals on a limited budget. Eating well while spending less is about more than just creating recipes using inexpensive ingredients; it’s about creatively combining ingredients so you don’t feel deprived and are inspired to stick to your budget.
