Beef and Cheese Crescents


This is another great recipe from my days as a Pre-School Teacher. It is quick, easy and frankly quite delicious. My husband had never had it before, and he was a huge fan.

If you happen to have leftover cooked ground beef, as I did, it makes it even faster to make!

1 1/2 ground beef
3/4 cup barbecue sauce (or less), we like a brand called Show Me, it is smoky and delicious
Sliced Cheddar Cheese
2 - 8oz cans of Pillsbury Crescent Dinner Rolls (the new larger ones work especially well)
salt and pepper to taste
1 beaten egg

Heat oven to 350 degrees

Brown beef and onions, adding in salt and pepper to taste, drain and stir in sauce

Unroll Crescent rolls into 4 long rectangles on ungreased cookie sheets, overlapping long sides firmly

Press perforations and edges to seal pat to form a rectangle

Spread meat mixture lengthwise in a wide strip down the center of the dough

Top with sliced cheese, add the top and pinch edges to seal

Brush on beaten egg and bake for 20-25 minutes till golden brown

They may not be pretty, but they sure taste good!
