12 oz. pork sausage 2 T. parsley

1/2 C. onion (I don't use this) 1 tube 8 oz. crescent rolls

1/4 C. celery 1 egg lightly beaten

1/4 C. green pepper

1 garlic clove minced

4 oz. cream cheese

Cook sausage with chopped onion, green pepper, and garlic. Drain. Add cream cheese and parsley. Heat till melted; set aside. Unroll rolls. Press seams together. (water helps) Roll into 12x10 rectangle. Spoon sausage mixture down center. Cut 3/4" strips down each side of dough and fold over each other to cover mixture making a braid. Brush dough with egg. Bake at 350* for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
