Faris' Pinwheels

(I got this recipe from my friend Faris. These are quick and yummy!)

1 can of crescent dough
1 container of cream cheese with onions & chives
deli ham
fresh spinach

Roll out the crescent dough and press triangles together to make one large rectangle. Spread the cream cheese over dough. Top with fresh spinach and ham. Roll long side to long side and be sure to roll up tightly. Slice and bake according to crescent roll package.

Missy's Potato Soup

(Missy (my sister-n-law) made this on Christmas day this past year and it was so easy and good we have already made it several times since.)

1 32 oz frozen southern style diced hash browns
1 pint half-n-half
1 pint whipping cream
milk
shredded cheddar cheese
Oscar Mayer real bacon recipe pieces
salt & pepper
(you may need to add a little flour, 1 or 2 tbls. to thicken the soup)
***

Microwave potatoes until thawed. Mix potatoes, half-n-half and whipping cream into large stove top cookware. Add milk to completely cover potatoes. Salt and Pepper. Cook on medium to low heat for about an hour, stirring constantly. When done, add to soup bowls then top with shredded cheddar cheese and bacon pieces.

***I like to saute some chopped onions in butter first before adding the potatoes and other ingredients, and top with some fresh or dried chives when adding the cheese and bacon.
