🧀 Cheesy Beef-Stuffed Crescent Rolls
Ingredients (serves 4–6)
1 lb (450g) ground beef
1 small onion, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp salt
½ tsp black pepper
1 tsp paprika (or taco seasoning if you like a kick)
1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or a mix)
2 cans refrigerated crescent roll dough
2 tbsp butter, melted
Optional: chopped parsley or green onions
Optional glaze: 2 tbsp honey + 1 tbsp Dijon mustard (or BBQ sauce)
Instructions
Cook the filling
In a pan over medium heat, cook the ground beef with onion until browned.
Add garlic, salt, pepper, and paprika. Stir and cook 1 more minute.
Turn off heat and mix in the cheese.
Prep the dough
Unroll crescent dough and separate into triangles (or rectangles if using sheets).
Fill & roll
Spoon beef mixture onto the wide end of each piece of dough.
Roll up tightly, tucking the sides so the cheese doesn’t escape.
Bake
Place seam-side down in a greased baking dish.
Brush tops with melted butter.
Bake at 190°C / 375°F for 15–20 minutes, until golden brown.
Glaze (optional but 🔥)
Brush with honey-mustard or BBQ sauce right when they come out of the oven.
Garnish & serve
Sprinkle parsley or green onions if you’re feeling fancy.
🔥 Pro Tips
Add jalapeños or chili flakes for spice
Mix in cream cheese for extra creamy filling
Swap beef for chicken or sausage
Serve with marinara, ranch, or garlic butter for dipping
