Ham Broccoli Braid Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°. For filling, mix first four ingredients; stir in ham, cheese and vegetables., Unroll one tube of crescent dough onto an ungreased baking sheet; seal perforations to form one long rectangle. Spoon half of the filling lengthwise down center third of rectangle. On each long side, cut 1-in. wide strips at an angle to within 1/2 in. of filling. Starting at one end, fold alternating strips at an angle across filling; seal ends. Brush with egg white. Repeat with remaining dough and filling., Bake 20-25 minutes or until dark golden brown, rotating pans halfway through baking. Cool 5 minutes before slicing.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
• In a large bowl, combine ham, broccoli, onion, parsley, mustard and cheese. Stir well.
• Unroll crescent roll dough, and arrange flat on a medium baking sheet of dough. Using a knife or scissors, cut 1 inch wide strips in towards the center, starting on the long sides. There should be a solid strip about 3 inches wide down the center, with the cut strips forming a fringe down each side. Spread the filling along the center strip. Fold the side strips over filling, alternating strips from each side. Pinch or twist to seal.
• Bake in preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, until deep golden brown.

Steps:

• Toss pasta, ham, 1 cup cheese, broccoli, and green pepper together in a large mixing bowl; combine miracle whip and milk; stir into pasta mixture until everything is coated.
• Pour pasta mixture into a lightly greased 9x13" baking pan; top with croutons and remaining cheese.
• Bake at 350° for 30 minutes.
• Note: Using 8 ounces rotini pasta (2 cups) made the casserole somewhat dry, so I decreased that amount to 6 ounces or 1 1/2 cups dry pasta.
