Meat Roll-ups

Total Time: 46 mins Preparation Time: 35 mins Cook Time: 11 mins

Ingredients

• 1 lb lean ground beef
• 1 (1 1/3 ounce) envelope onion soup mix (such as lipton's)
• 1 cup grated cheddar cheese
• 3 (8 ounce) packages refrigerated crescent dinner rolls

Recipe

• 1 begin to brown ground beef in a large skillet. once a little moisture has come out of the beef, stir in the onion soup mix and continue until all the meat is browned, over medium-high heat. make sure ground beef is crumbled to small pieces well.
• 2 remove from heat. drain off any excess fat. stir in cheese until melted and well combined. set aside to cool.
• 3 preheat oven to 375-degree f.
• 4 loosely roll out the crescent dough as directed on package. cut each crescent in half (into 2 triangles), creating 16 triangles from each package.
• 5 place a heaping teaspoonful of the beef mixture onto each triangle's center. (the beef mixture only needs to be cooled enough so that you can handle it with your fingers.).
• 6 roll each triangle to enclose. tuck dough points under, pinch to close any openings, and place that doughier side down onto ungreased cookie sheets.
• 7 bake about 11 minutes, flipping over about 5 minutes into bake time, careful not to burn bottoms. serve warm or let cool and freeze.
• 8 to serve after freezing: no need to thaw - warm in preheated 325-degree f oven for 10-13 minutes.
