#3924 - Crescent Cubans

(by Shirley McNevich)

French's yellow mustard OR spicy mustard
2 - 8 roll cans Pillsbury crescent rolls
3/4lb. ground pork
1 large onion (sliced and rings separated)
8 slices deli ham
8 slices Swiss OR provolone cheese

Place 1/4 of the sliced onions into a microwave safe bowl--spray them with Pam. Repeat until all onions are in the bowl, finishing by spray the top of the onions with Pam. Microwave on high for 2 minutes, then stir and return to microwave. Continue microwaving the onions in 30 second increments until they are soft, then set aside. Grease a cookie sheet with Pam. Open one can of crescent roll dough, separate the dough and place the dough triangles on the cookie sheet (not touching each other). Spread mustard over the top of each dough. Spread the ground pork over the mustard. Place the ham and cheese over the pork (folding as necessary). Spread the softened onions over the cheese. Open the second can of crescent dough and top each sandwich with a second dough (make sure the doughs are orientated the same direction). Use the tines of a fork to press the two doughs together on each sandwich so you end up with a sealed sandwich. Bake at 400 degrees 15-20 minutes or until golden brown and pork is done. Optional: brush a little butter over the top dough on each sandwich before baking.
