# What You’ll Need:
→ Meat and Aromatics
01 -
1 lb lean ground beef
02 -
1/2 cup diced yellow onion
→ Seasonings
03 -
1/2 tsp salt
04 -
1/2 tsp black pepper
05 -
1/2 tsp garlic powder
06 -
1/2 tsp onion powder
→ Dairy
07 -
1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
08 -
2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
→ Baked Goods
09 -
1 can (8 oz) refrigerated crescent roll dough
→ Garnish
10 -
1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
→ Topping Seasoning
11 -
1 tsp garlic powder
# Steps to Make This:
01 -
Heat the oven to 375°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it to prevent sticking.
02 -
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef and diced onions for 8 to 10 minutes until the beef is browned and onions are softened. Season with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder during cooking. Drain excess fat and let the mixture cool for a few minutes.
03 -
When the beef mixture is warm but no longer hot, fold in the shredded sharp cheddar cheese until evenly distributed, preserving a firm texture in the filling.
04 -
Unroll the crescent dough and gently separate it into eight individual triangles.
05 -
Place approximately 1 heaping tablespoon of the beef and cheese filling on the wide end of each triangle. Roll the dough starting at the wide end, enclosing the filling completely, then place seam-side down on the baking sheet.
06 -
Combine melted butter with garlic powder and brush the mixture generously over the surface of each rollup to enhance flavor and color.
07 -
Bake in the preheated oven for 12 to 15 minutes or until the dough is golden brown and fully cooked through.
08 -
Sprinkle with fresh parsley if desired, and serve warm alongside preferred dipping sauces such as ketchup or ranch dressing.
# Additional Notes:
01 -
Allowing the beef mixture to cool slightly before combining with cheese prevents premature melting and ensures a hearty filling.
02 -
For crisper crust, drain excess grease from cooked beef and cool before filling dough.
03 -
These rollups freeze well prior to baking; bake frozen rollups adding extra time to ensure even cooking.
