Not quite like the ham and cheese wrap your mom packed you for school lunches, old-school sausage pinwheels are as much a classic for a reason: They feature crescent dough with bits of sausage and red pepper layered within a creamy garlic cheese spread. Bell pepper + cream cheese + cheddar cheese make for a pimento-inspired bite.
