Are you ready to make one of the easiest appetizers you’ve ever done before and get rave reviews on it? I’m telling you, every time I make Poor Man’s Brie people ask for the recipe and then can’t believe how simple it is! Not to mention, it’s cheap to make….as if you couldn’t tell from the title. I made this a few weeks ago for a neighbor’s going away part and that’s what this picture is from, I also have made it for showers, small group gatherings, etc.
Poor Man’s Brie:
1 large pkg of crescent rolls (you know me…I used reduced fat)
cheddar cheese (again, reduced fat….you can use sliced cheese, shredded, seriously…it doesn’t matter)
1 block of cream cheese (RF)
Lay out half of the crescent rolls flat.
Put a layer of cheddar cheese on top of crescent rolls.
Top this with the block of cream cheese.
Add another layer of cheddar cheese on the cream cheese.
Add the other half of crescent rolls on top. Put some spices on top of this like oregano, basil, or mixed up salt….just something to add a little kick. Bake according to crescent roll package directions. Serve immediately w crackers.
See how easy that is! Don’t you love easy, cheap and good recipes?! I’m telling you I’m becoming a master of these type recipes….you know domestically challenged diva over here needs easy!

This looks yummy and your recipe is super easy! I'm making this for the next family bash, thanks for the recipe!
OMGosh, that sounds great and really easy. Just my kind of recipe ;o) Thanks for sharing it.I came here via Met Monday and hope you can visit me sometimes over at Pittypat Paperie.
Yes I love easy, cheap and good recipes! This sounds delish!
This sounds like something our friends would like. I'll have to keep this in mind next time we have company. What happens to that top layer of cresent roll? Do you just peel it off to get to the cheese?
Interesting, might have to try this. Do you break open the top layer to serve?
thanks so much
you make it sound just too easy, look yum!Tracey
For anyone who was wondering, just serve with crackers. Guest takes cracker and scoops from top to bottom getting 2 layers of crescent roll and the middle layer of cheesey goodness all on that 1 cracker…yum!
Seems like an excellent use for an overabundance of Pillsbury coupons!
Okay that's fabulous!!!!!! I LOVE IT!
Cheese and crescent rolls – perfect! This looks so yummy and easy!
my family would never go for this if I put that name on it, they love brie too much! But its a great idea!
Love this!
