Description
A warm, cheesy dish combining rich ground beef and gooey cheese wrapped in flaky crescent dough, perfect for weeknight dinners or gatherings.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped (plus extra for garnish)
- 1 can refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 1 large egg, beaten (for egg wash)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef, breaking it apart using a spatula until browned. Drain excess grease.
- Add garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper to the skillet. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, then remove from heat and let cool slightly.
- Transfer the beef mixture to a mixing bowl. Add cheddar cheese, mozzarella cheese, and chopped parsley. Mix until well combined.
- Open the can of crescent dough and unroll it into one large sheet, pressing seams together.
- Spread the beef and cheese mixture evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
- With the long side facing you, roll the dough tightly, pinching the seam to seal and tucking the ends underneath.
- Place the roll seam-side down on the baking sheet and brush the top with beaten egg.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through.
- Let it rest for 5 minutes, slice into thick rounds, garnish with extra parsley, and serve warm.
Notes
Serve with a side salad or roasted vegetables. Consider offering marinara sauce or ranch dressing for dipping.
