Ham Pinwheels a 'la Springtime is another vintage dish I made using the recipe as only a springboard. Actually, I didn't even read the recipe, I just used the image and name as guidance.
It basically comes down to this: It's biscuit dough filled with whatever you have, jelly rolled, baked and slathered in white sauce and peas.
I didn't have a mess of chopped ham to make a hefty filling as I think the original probably called for so mine wound up being mini versions of this dish. The originals appear to be the size of Yugo hubcaps. I went with using jiffy baking mix and slices of ham lunch meat. Then topped it with white sauce and peas. We had these for dinner along with a side of soup.
I hope these past few recipes help generate some ideas how you can toss some random bits together and call it dinner!
If you left off the peas and made the white sauce just a tiny bit thicker, this would be a fantastic April Fool's dinner. They look like cinnamon buns!

It's a super easy dish and you can use whatever as the filling...leftovers, spam...
