Easy Strawberry Sweet Rolls-you won’t believe how easy these are to make!
These Strawberry Sweet Rolls are the result of cleaning out my refrigerator. I thought about taking a picture of how jammed packed my fridge is but thought I might scare you all off. With 3 kids in the house, I buy milk 2 gallons at a time, 2 dozen eggs, various fruits and veggies, lunch meats and cheeses. These are the “perishables.” The things that get turned over and used constantly. I can live with this.
It’s the long lasting items that take up all the space. 3 different kinds of pickles, 2 types of relish, 3 different mustards, salad dressings, Mayonnaise, 2 jars of Jelly, a jar of yeast. A jar of bacon grease. Yes, in the south you keep some bacon grease on hand. Just a dab in some recipes can make a huge flavor difference.
Leftovers. The hubby will cook up sausage and biscuits and then reheat them for breakfast during the week. Roasted Chicken, I’ll probably make that into chicken salad for lunch. The stew beef we had for dinner tonight, you just run out of room. And we have one of the biggest refrigerators they make. And a full size freezer in the laundry room.
I wanted to make some overnight rolls. That meant I had to make room for a large bowl. If I hadn’t just restocked our milk supply this morning I would have been ok. 3 full gallons of milk. Going to have to make adjustments on the other shelves. Time to see what’s almost empty. What can we use up. As I’m moving the strawberry jelly to the door I notice it’s almost empty. I put it on the counter as something that might have to go. Then I find the crescent dough, hidden behind 5 other things. Why it was on the shelf I can only guess. This is one of the hazards of having the kids help you put the groceries away. I’m just glad I found it.

Verna says
Wonder if “ready made” pie crusts would work for jelly rollups
Tammy says
This looks great! I think I’m going to substitute the jelly with Nutella!
sherri queen says
could you roll these up the night before then cut and bake the next morning
Joan Hayes says
I wouldn’t recommend it. Using canned crescent dough, once you expose the dough to air it starts to “age” for lack of a better term and is best used freshly opened. I know I have tried to save opened crescent dough in a sealed bag in the fridge and ended up throwing it out.

I just found your site, I love it. I am allergic to chocolate and am so glad to see some good looking desserts made without chocolate. This one will be on my menu tomorrow as today I have to get a shot in my back and won’t be home to make it, 2.5 hr trip one way. Can’t wait to make these. A big thanks for your site.
