We love this recipe as a meal, but it was originally supposed to be an appetizer… hence the name antipasto squares! They’re unbelieveably delicious when they’re hot, bubbly and fresh from the oven.

This easy dish is made with refrigerated crescent roll dough, and it’s so easy to make with a few other simple ingredients. Food will be on the table in less than an hour!

    I have been making this recipe for 15 years or so. I call it “Calzone Squares”. It is simply yummy and cut smaller for an appetizer–the men devour it! When I cut it into Lasagna size squares, all I need is a big salad. Thanks for posting it.

    It’s in the oven! I used leftovers, corn beef, turkey, baked ham. For the cheeses I used what I had, mozzarella, baby Swiss, and Parmesan. This is a fun recipe. Thanks!

    Ladies…this recipe is the bomb…you can use any lunch meat you like. I have tried sandwich pepperoni, turkey and salami. Cappacola is awesome in this. Different cheeses work…you cant go wrong!! I have even added a layer of pizza sauce on the bottom crescent roll. Awesome everytime. I am thinking of adding onion next time to make it like a hoagie. Ahh cant wait! Thanks Amanda..this is a winner!

    These look like a perfect appetizer or meal! Like a really good Italian sandwich :) And speaking of serving with frilly toothpicks, I know of someone (a MAN, of course) who was sent to the store to buy “fancy toothpicks” to serve meatballs and cocktail sausages with for a party. He came back with what he assumed were the correct “fancy toothpicks”…the little plastic dental flossers! HAHAHA! You can be sure no one will let him forget THAT anytime soon. And yes, at the party they served meatballs on plastic flossers! It was great fun :)

    Try this using provel cheese. Not sure if it is available everywhere, or if it’s just a “St. Louis thing” (it’s on traditional St. Louis style pizza and found in every Italian dish on “The Hill”!) Anyway, as I understand it, provel is a combination of provelone, swiss, and cheddar. This is seriously the best cheese out there – try it & I bet you’ll be hooked!

    I love the idea of expanding your blog like this. Also, thanks so much for the photos of the ingredients. It helps me know what you are talking about with the ingredients as in Australia we don’t have the same brands, etc.
