On a large baking sheet arrange crescent rolls to form a “bed” for ingredients to lay on with the long pieces forming the bed and the tips radiating outward (press dough together in the bed area). Make sure the rolls are arranged equally on each side. Layer the ham evenly in the center of the rolls. Top with pepperoni and bacon. Sprinkle on mushrooms and pimentos. Top with cheese and salad dressing. Gather the tips of the rolls on each end together to form a pocket and seal the sandwich together. Bake at 400 degrees for 10-15 minutes until golden brown!
