Janette's Chili Lite-Bites

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup red kidney beans
• 1/4 cup finely chopped onion
• 1/4 cup finely chopped green bell pepper, seeded and chopped
• 1/4 cup finely chopped mushrooms
• 1 tablespoon ketchup
• 2 teaspoons hot sauce
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 1 (8-ounce) can reduced-fat crescent roll dough
• 1/4 cup grated reduced-fat cheddar

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

In a medium-size mixing bowl, combine all ingredients except the crescent roll dough and cheese.

Press 2 crescent-roll triangles together and roll them out to make a rectangle about 5 by 4 inches. Cut crosswise into 3 even pieces. Repeat with remaining dough to make a total of 12 pieces.

Spoon a little of the bean mixture onto the center of each piece of dough and top with a little cheddar. Fold the dough around the filling and pinch the ends together to seal.

Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake until browned, about 30 minutes. Serve hot.
