A fantastic way to use up leftover ham and save time with a quick grab-and-go breakfast. This recipe yields enough food to freeze for a week’s worth of meals. Thaw in the fridge over night, then reheat for around 45 seconds at medium to low power (40% power).

Ingredients
- 1 (12 ounce) package crescent roll dough (such as Pillsbury® Grands!™)
- 1 (8 ounce) ham steak, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
- 8 tablespoons shredded Gruyere cheese
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Unroll crescent dough and separate individual rolls at perforations. Place 1 piece of ham and 1 tablespoon of Gruyere cheese in the center of each triangle. Fold over the 2 longer sides of the triangle, overlapping them to seal ham and cheese.
- Arrange crescents 1 inch apart on a baking sheet.
- Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 12 to 14 minutes. Let cool completely on a cooling rack.
- Wrap crescents individually with wax paper and place into a large resealable bag. Place in the freezer.

So easy and delicious! My husband devoured these. I am making them again today but with turkey and swiss. Fun and easy recipe that you can change up. I like them for breakfast but could also be a great appetizer or snack. Thank you!
Made with regular croissants as I didn’t see Grands at my store. Made as directed — delicious and simple. Had 2 for lunch; rest going in freezer. Considering finely chopping ham next time so there will be plenty of ham taste in each bite.
Yummy!
Loved the flavor, and it’s a great way to use leftover ham. Unfortunately I didn’t read the reviews before making, so I ended up with regular crescent rolls. Will definitely look for the grands!
These were a great hit!! So easy and fast I was done in no time!!! And TASTY!!!!!
Was so easy, and very tasty! Not sure about freezing for later because we gobbled them all up!
First of all, Pillsbury does make the crescent rolls in the Grands, bigger like their biscuits. I just made this yesterday, and hubby and I loved it! I have more ham and cheese, so I will make more soon. I did use the Gruyere, but I think just about any cheese you have would work.
The only change I made was I used the new Hawaiian crescents which I wouldn’t do again. I also cut the the crescents in half and made 16 instead of 8.
Loved it and will make it again. Did not freeze any as it was all gone. Thank you.
Very simple recipe and easy to make. I added some spicy brown mustard just to give them zip. Grab-n-go for a lunch too!
You can also put Nutella in crescent rolls as well. Kids love them!!
I used the cheese that was already in my frog and they were delicious! Fun way to use leftovers!
Love the result of this delicious yet easy recipe. My wife could believe U made it.
Made it ,loved it. Will make again.
Such a simple yet flavorful recipe for quick on-the-go breakfasts during the week. Would make an equally fantastic option for a brunch. So versatile too – easily swap out the type of cheese, or use precooked bacon or sausage instead of ham. The possibilities are endless! You’ll want to keep this in your regular rotation! **** NOTE that the “Grands” crescent rolls aren’t biscuits – they are the XL size of regular crescents and come in a 12oz tube instead of the smaller 8oz tube. ****
I made this as an appetizer for company. They were easy and good. Finger food. I substituted Swiss for gruyere. I’ll make them again for sure..
Amazing!
no I made no changes and yes I would make it again
