Classic appetizers and snacks can be elevated to more grown-up versions with a few elegant flavor combinations. The addition of dijon mustard and sharp cheddar cheese to miniature smoked sausages and flaky crescent style rolls gives you Fancy Pigs in a Blanket!  Fancy Pigs in a Blanket The older version of pigs in a blanket that was common in 1940s America was a simple dough wrapped around a small hot dog or even cut up regular hot dogs. By using smaller smoked sausages, you get a deeper flavor. But to keep it semi-homemade, I used the store bought dough found in the tubes. To add to the presentation of these tasty bites, I added a sprinkle of everything seasoning. It also gives a lovely crunchy texture to the final bite. Everything seasoning is a favorite of mine, and buy it in bulk. You can also make it fairly easily. You just need two tablespoons each of dried minced onion, dried minced garlic, coarse sea salt, poppy seeds, sesame seeds, and parsley.  Fancy Pigs in a Blanket These would be great for an appetizer night or as a dish at a pot luck. They also make a great afternoon snack or even a brunch addition. If you are planning a big party for the upcoming Super Bowl - these two bite appetizers are the perfect things for your grazing table! Now Let's Get Cookin'!
