What You’ll Need

1 cup Daily's® diced cooked ham


1/2 cup chive and onion cream cheese spread
2 tablespoons Caesar dressing
1 large apple, seeded and chopped
1/2 cup quartered red and-or green grapes
1/4 cup finely chopped red onion
1/4 cup diced green pepper
2 cans (8 ounces each) refrigerated crescent rolls
1 egg, beaten
1/4 cup finely chopped almonds
Nonstick cooking spray

Directions

In large bowl, blend cream cheese spread and dressing. Add ham, apple, grapes, onion and green pepper; gently stir until coated. Set aside. 

Line a large baking sheet with heavy foil. Lightly coat with nonstick cooking spray. 

Unroll both cans of crescent rolls and separate. On prepared baking sheet arrange triangles overlapping with shortest side of each roll toward center leaving 5-inch circle open in center. Points of crescent dough may hang over edge of baking sheet. Press overlapping dough to flatten and close center circle to 4-inches. 

Spoon mixture evenly over widest part of dough. Pull points of dough over filling and tuck dough under dough in center to form ring. (Some filling will be visible). Brush dough evenly with beaten egg and sprinkle with almonds. 

Bake in preheated oven at 375ºF for 25-30 minutes or until golden and pastry in inner circle is baked. (If necessary, loosely cover outer edge of pastry with foil during the last 10 minutes of baking to prevent over-browning). 

Remove from oven and cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes. 

Using large spatula, carefully slide onto large serving platter. (If desired, use foil to lift and transfer pastry ring to serving platter. Cut foil in center of ring and underneath pastry ring; pull foil pieces to remove.)
