Light Butter
1/4 cup (Melted)
Dijon-Horseradish Mustard
1 teaspoon (Mixed with melted butter)
Pillsbury Refrigerated Crescent Dinner Rolls
8 ounces (Separated into 8 pieces)
Kielbasa or Smoked Sausage (Lite)

Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2
In a small bowl, thoroughly combine the melted butter and Dijon-horseradish mustard. Set aside some of the mixture for brushing on top later.
3
Open the package of Pillsbury Refrigerated Crescent Dinner Rolls and lay them out onto a sheet of waxed paper. Using a pizza cutter, slice along the perforations to create 8 individual pieces.
4
Generously brush the top of each piece of dough with the butter-mustard mixture. If you're adding caramelized onions, distribute them evenly on the dough pieces.
5
Slice the kielbasa or smoked sausage into 8 equal sections, then cut each section into 2-4 discs. Lay the discs down on the widest end of each piece of dough.
6
Carefully roll the dough around the sausage, tucking in the sides as you go, so the pointed end is on the bottom.
7
Arrange the filled crescent rolls seam-side down on an ungreased baking sheet.
8
Brush the tops of the roll-ups with the remaining butter-mustard mixture for added flavor.
9
Bake in your preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the roll-ups are golden brown. Enjoy!
