Ingredients
  

1 can (8 oz) refrigerated crescent roll dough

8 slices of deli ham

8 slices of cheddar cheese

2 tablespoons Dijon mustard

1 tablespoon honey (optional)

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon dried oregano

1 egg (for egg wash)

Sesame seeds or poppy seeds (for garnish, optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.

    Prepare the Dough: Open the can of crescent roll dough and unroll it on a clean surface. Separate the dough into individual triangles.

      Mix the Sauce: In a small bowl, combine Dijon mustard and honey (if using) to create a sweet mustard sauce.

        Assemble the Rolls:

          - Spread a small amount of the mustard sauce on the wider end of each crescent triangle.

            - Place a slice of ham on top, followed by a slice of cheddar cheese.

              - Sprinkle a pinch of garlic powder and oregano over the cheese for added flavor.

                Roll Them Up: Starting from the wide end, roll each triangle up towards the point, making sure to encase the ham and cheese well. Place the rolled crescents on the prepared baking sheet, keeping space between them.

                  Prepare the Egg Wash: In a small bowl, beat the egg and brush the mixture over the tops of the rolls for a golden finish. Sprinkle sesame seeds or poppy seeds if desired.

                    Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the crescent rolls are golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.

                      Serve: Allow the rolls to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy them warm as a delightful appetizer or lunch option!
