I thought I should let all of you know about this. About a month ago I answered a survey from Pssst and didn't think much about it. Then I got this reply:


Thank you for your participation in this survey. Now is your chance to shine! You could be named one of four (4) Pillsbury Crescents brand ambassadors, earn $500, and be featured with Pillsbury Crescents in national magazines and websites (Every Day with Rachael Ray, Taste of Home, and Allrecipes.com) to “wow” the public with your Crescents creations! And all four (4) Ambassadors will be required to compete for the title of Ultimate Pillsbury Crescents Brand Ambassador and $5,000.

Please provide the following information.
Based on your application, you may be among a smaller group chosen to be contacted as part of the next round of our Talent Search. If you are chosen for the next round, you will be asked to participate in a quick phone interview with a brand representative as part of the submission process. Please provide your phone number and a preferred day of the week and time of day to reach you during June 2010. Based on the time and day you decide, we will contact you for your brief phone interview. We will attempt to contact you no more than three times during the time slot you provide to conduct the interview; if after three attempts we have not reached you, you will be taken out of consideration.

Well I was shocked and tried not to think much about it. I figured they sent that to a zillion women and it was a random kind of thing like contests. Well I never win contests so I put it out of my mind..

Then I got this message and a message on our answering machine:


Hello Lois-

I'm writing to confirm a phone message that I left for you. My name is Jenna and I'm calling because you expressed interests in becoming a Pillsbury Brand Ambassador. Because of the answers you gave to the survey we sent, you have qualified for the next round, which includes a phone interview. During that interview, I will ask you to send me two original recipes using Pillsbury Crescent Rolls, one for easy, every day meals and one for holiday entertaining, both with fewer than 10 ingredients and taking less than 30 minutes to prepare. I will also need a good quality photo of you.

If we haven't spoken, please give me a call at your earliest convenience at 212-***-****. I will also try to reach you later today or tomorrow.

If we have already spoken by the time you get this, this is just a friendly reminder to email me your recipes and photo by Friday.

Thanks!

Jenna

So I talked to the girl just a couple of days ago for about 30 minutes, and now it is a waiting game. The final decision will be made by the middle of July. She told me I was one of one hundred women they contacted to take part in this. If I am picked as one of the final four I will have to have a professional photo sent to them and a bio sheet filled out. Then my picture and the other 3 will be in Rachel Ray's magazine, Taste of Home magazine and on a special internet site just for this and connected to Pillsbury. People have to vote on who they want to be the Pillsbury Crescent Roll Ambassador.

I'll admit I am a little excited. If I make it to the final 4 I get $500. If I win I get $5,000. But just making it this far is pretty nifty!!! Also if I win, Pillsbury might hire me (or whoever wins) to represent them for a year or so going to different talk shows, doing magazine interviews and some radio. All of that scares me to death!!

But I thought I should let all of you know. I wouldn't have gotten the info without this site and all of you. So if I am picked as one of the 4 I sure hope you will vote for me. Should I post the 2 recipes I sent in for them to judge?

Anyway, there you have it.

Here are the two recipes I sent to Pillsbury. They are big time favorites at our house. People at church ask me to make them often for carry-ins too. Hope you like them.

Alfredo Bacon Chicken Pizza

6 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
1 lb. smoked bacon
3 cloves of garlic, finely chopped
2 c. Alfredo Sauce (jarred kind is fine if you don't have homemade)
2 pkgs. (8 oz.) Pillsbury Crescent rolls
2 c. shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 c. Parmesan cheese, grated
1/2 c. green onion, chopped

Heat oven to 375?. Open and roll out crescent roll dough. Do not separate. Place on a cookie sheet or jelly roll pan, filling the sheet with both rolls. Seal all the edges with a pizza roller forming the crust. A little at the edge can be rolled up to look more like a pizza crust edge. Bake 10-12 min or until light golden brown. Remove from oven and set aside. Cook bacon in skillet on medium-high heat until almost crisp, drain and crumble. Save about 2 tbsp. of the grease. Cook the chicken in the same skillet until no longer pink and just starting to brown lightly. About 2 minutes before the chicken is done, add half the garlic to the pan and cook along side with the chicken. Remove the chicken, drain off any grease and cube or cut into small pieces. Taking about 1/4 - 1/2 c. of the Alfredo sauce coat the chicken pieces very lightly. Spread remaining sauce over the pizza crust evenly. Put chicken on the crust and sprinkle with the bacon evenly. Sprinkle remaining garlic over the chicken. Top with the two cheeses and sprinkle with green onion. Bake pizza for about 5-7 min or until the cheese is completely melted and is starting to bubble and just lightly brown in spots.



Dutch Apple Crumble

2 cans apple pie filling
1 pkgs. (8 oz.) cream cheese, softened
1 pkg. (8 oz) Pillsbury Crescent rolls
1 c. sugar
1 tsp. vanilla
1 c. flour
1 c. brown sugar
1 tsp. cinnamon
6 tbsp. butter

Preheat oven to 350?. Spray the bottom of a 9x13 pan with non-stick cooking spray or lightly grease with shortening. Unroll one package of crescent rolls in the bottom of the pan. Press the seams together to form one solid piece. Mix cream cheese, sugar and vanilla with a mixer until well blended. Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the crescent dough. Spread both cans of apple pie filling over the cream cheese. Combine flour, sugar, and cinnamon completely. Cut butter into this mixture until it resembles a coarse crumb. Spread evenly over the apple pie filling. Bake for 30-35 min watching that the topping does not over-brown. Cut into squares and serve with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.

Dear Pssst??¦ member,

Country music star Martina McBride and baseball great Cal Ripken, Jr. are able to do what they love because they love their hearts. These superstars are teaming with Cheerios to inspire Americans to take care of their hearts, and you can help spread the word.
Martina and Cal partnered with America??™s No. 1 cereal to encourage others to make heart health a priority through the ???Do What You Love??? contest. Martina and Cal share how their dedication to heart health allows them to pursue their passions and through the contest, they ask others to share their own stories.

Simply visit www.cheerios.com/love to submit a short essay and photo showcasing what you love to do and how you take care of yourself to keep doing it.
One lucky winner and a guest will receive a trip for two to Nashville, Tenn., to tour Martina??™s world-class recording complex, Blackbird Studio, and listen to her music ??” including unreleased material ??” with her! They??™ll also tour the Country Music Hall of Fame?® and Museum with Martina and receive VIP tickets to one of her upcoming concerts.
Another lucky winner and a guest will have lunch with Cal (and even play a game of catch!) and get a tour of the Ripken Youth Baseball Academy from the ???Iron Man??? of baseball himself. The winner also will throw out the first pitch at the Cal Ripken World Series game and sit in Cal??™s seats at a professional Baltimore baseball game.

Start loving your heart today so you can continue to do what you love for years to come. As part of a heart healthy diet, enjoying Cheerios is an easy way to help maintain a healthy heart because the cereal is made with 100% natural whole grain oats.
