About Pigs in blankets

Pigs in Blankets are a classic dish commonly found in American and British cuisines, especially during holidays and casual gatherings. They consist of small sausages, such as cocktail franks or smoked links, wrapped in dough—typically crescent rolls, puff pastry, or biscuit dough—then baked to golden perfection. While delicious and easy to prepare, they are often high in sodium and saturated fats due to the processed nature of the sausages and buttery pastry. On the positive side, these bite-sized appetizers can be portion-controlled, making it easier to manage overall calorie intake. For a healthier twist, options like chicken or plant-based sausages and whole-grain dough can be used. Often served as finger food at parties, Pigs in Blankets remain a beloved, indulgent comfort food despite their nutritional shortcomings.
