Cheese Broccoli Ham Braid

Ingredients:
1 bunch of broccoli
8 ounces Gouda cheese
15 slices ham, diced
1/2 cup mayonnaise
2 tsp dijon mustard
2 tsp whole grain mustard
salt and pepper
2 packages crescent roll dough


Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 350-375 degrees.

2. Blanching the broccoli: After you cut the broccoli florets into bite size pieces, cook it in boiling water just for one minute. During the cooking process prepare a bowl of ice water and dip boiled broccoli to ice water bawl for shocking.

3. Combine diced ham, mayonnaise, mustard, salt and pepper (all the ingredients except crescent roll dough) in a bowl.

4. Un-roll 2 packages of crescent rolls on a large baking sheet and place the combined ingredients to the center of the rolls.

5. Then tear strips along the border of the dough and “braid” the dough over the top of the mixture. 

6. Bake at 375 degrees for 15-17 minutes, or until golden brown.
