Ingredients
Scale
Main Protein and Vegetables:
- 1 pound (0.45 kilograms) ground beef
- ½ bag frozen seasoning blend
- 1 can sliced mushrooms
Dairy and Cheese:
- ¾ bag (1 cup) Italian blend cheese (½ mozzarella and ½ parmesan)
- ½ cup (120 milliliters) sour cream
Seasonings and Bread:
- 1–2 garlic cloves, minced
- salt
- pepper
- Italian seasoning
- 2 cans reduced-fat crescent roll dough
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius) and prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper or light cooking spray.
- In a large skillet, sauté the seasoning blend and sliced mushrooms over medium heat until the onions become translucent and tender.
- Add minced garlic and ground beef to the skillet, cooking thoroughly until the meat is browned and no pink remains.
- Season the meat mixture with Italian seasoning, kosher salt, and freshly ground black pepper, stirring to distribute flavors evenly.
- Remove the skillet from heat and fold in sour cream and shredded cheese, creating a rich and creamy beef filling.
- Unroll the crescent roll dough onto the prepared baking sheet, ensuring the surface is lightly floured to prevent sticking.
- Carefully spoon the beef mixture down the center of the dough, leaving adequate space on the sides for sealing.
- Gently fold the dough edges over the filling, pinching the seams and ends to create a secure seal and prevent leakage.
- Whisk an egg and brush the surface of the crescent roll with the egg wash to achieve a golden, glossy finish.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the dough turns a rich, golden brown color.
- Allow the crescent roll to cool for 5 minutes before slicing and serving hot.
Notes
- Gently press edges together to create a tight seal, preventing filling from escaping during baking.
- Leave enough space inside the crescent roll to avoid overstuffing, which can cause messy leaks.
- Thoroughly combine ingredients before filling to guarantee a harmonious blend of flavors in every bite.
