Pigs in blankets are a classic holiday appetizer that is always a crowd-pleaser. But what if you want to switch things up this year? Here are a few twists on the traditional recipe that will add some excitement to your party menu.

Instead of using crescent roll dough, wrap your pigs in blankets in pretzel dough. The salty, chewy pretzel dough will add a delicious contrast to the savory sausage.

Add some heat to your pigs in blankets with jalapeños. Simply stuff a jalapeño slice into the center of each pig in a blanket before baking.

For a vegetarian or vegan option, try making veggie pigs in blankets. You can use veggie sausage links or tofu hot dogs, and wrap them in crescent roll dough or puff pastry.
