🛒 Ingredients (Only 4 Simple Items)
- 1 lb (450g) ground beef
- 1 can refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or mozzarella)
- 1 small onion soup mix packet (or simple salt + pepper if you prefer basic seasoning)
That’s it—no complicated ingredients, no extra steps.
🔥 Step-by-Step Method
1. Preheat the oven
Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Lightly grease a square baking dish (8×8 or 9×9 works best) or line it with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
2. Cook the beef filling
Place a skillet over medium heat and add the ground beef.
- Break it apart with a spatula as it cooks
- Stir until it becomes fully browned and no pink remains
- Drain excess fat to avoid a greasy base
Now add your seasoning:
- Mix in the onion soup packet (or salt + pepper if using alternatives)
- Stir well so the flavor coats all the meat evenly
Turn off the heat and set aside.
3. Prepare the crescent base
Open your crescent dough and unroll it.
- Press the dough into the bottom of your baking dish
- Seal any perforated lines by pinching them together
- Make sure the base layer is even so it bakes uniformly
This will become your soft, buttery crust.
