1.
Heat oven to 375 degrees F. Spray large cookie sheet with cooking spray. In large bowl, stir together cheese, ham, onions and mustard.

Separate 1 can of dough into 10 biscuits; leave second can in refrigerator. Separate each biscuit into 2 layers. Press each biscuit layer to form 3 1/2-inch round.

Place 1 rounded tablespoon cheese mixture on each dough round. Wrap dough around cheese mixture, pinching edges to seal. Repeat with remaining can of dough and cheese mixture.

Arrange 8 balls, seam side down and sides almost touching, to form ring on cookie sheet, leaving 3-inch hole in center. Arrange 14 balls, sides almost touching, around outside of first ring. Arrange remaining 18 balls around outside of second ring. Brush wreath with beaten egg. Sprinkle with sesame seed.

Biscuits & Gravy

When Nicole Filizetti isn't teaching, she spends time cooking up meals from scratch for her husband and two children. "We're big on having breakfast for dinner," she explains. "Making this veg version of biscuits and gravy seemed like a good way to add some lentils into my family's diet." For an unusually light take on a decadent breakfast favorite, serve this gravy over whole-grain English muffins rather than biscuits. You'll shave an extra 100 calories off your meal, and the crispy texture goes great with gravy. This fantastic recipe won third place in VT's 2008 Reader Recipe Contest.
