CHEESE
Look for the Proudly Wisconsin Badge when shopping for cheese. Any brand of Wisconsin Fontina can be used in this recipe.
Instructions
Heat oven to 350°F. Line a 15 x 10-inch baking pan with parchment paper. Combine the oregano, rosemary and thyme in a small bowl. Unroll crescent roll dough; separate into eight triangles. Top each with 1 tablespoon fontina and 1/2 teaspoon herbs. Roll up each from the wide end. Place rolls point side down 2 inches apart on prepared pan. Brush with egg wash. Sprinkle with remaining herbs. Bake for 12-14 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm.

Both an excellent table and cooking cheese, fontina is considered one of the most versatile cheeses in the world. It has a slightly tart, nutty flavor and melts to a delicious filling in the rolls.
