                    My family loves these hearty appetizers year-round...not just during the Christmas season. Alene Knesel, Northome, Minnesota Ingredients:

                                                1/4 cup chopped onion  |  
                                                2 garlic cloves, minced  |  
                                                1 cup (4 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese  |  
                                                1 tablespoon sweet pickle relish  |  
                                                1/2 teaspoon salt  |  
                                                1/2 teaspoon chili powder  |  
                                                1/4 teaspoon pepper  |  
                                                dash sugar  |  
                                                2 tubes (8 ounces each) refrigerated crescent rolls  |  
                                                
                     
                    Directions: 
                    
                        
                            
                                1. In a large skillet, cook beef, onion and garlic over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain. Stir in the cheese, pickle relish, salt, chili powder, pepper and sugar; set aside. 2. Unroll crescent dough and separate into triangles. Cut each in half lengthwise, forming two triangles. Place 1 tablespoon beef mixture along the wide end of each triangle; carefully roll up. 3. Place point side down 2 in. apart on ungreased baking sheets. Bake at 375° for 12-14 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm. Yield: 32 appetizers.                              |
