Ingredients

For the Rollups

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 tube crescent dough
  • 2 tablespoons garlic butter
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Steps

Prepare the Filling

In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned. Drain excess fat and stir in the garlic butter, salt, and pepper. Remove from heat and mix in the shredded cheese.

Wrap the Rollups

Preheat the oven as per dough instructions. Roll out the crescent dough and spoon the beef mixture onto each piece. Roll up tightly and place seam side down on a baking dish.

Bake

Bake according to crescent dough instructions until golden brown and the cheese is melted.

Enjoy!

Storage and Reheating Tips

If you manage to have any leftovers, storing them is a breeze. Allow the rollups to cool completely before transferring them to an airtight container. They can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. For longer storage, consider freezing them for up to 3 months, which is perfect for meal prepping and ready-to-eat options later on.

When it comes to reheating, the oven is your best bet to maintain that desirable texture. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and place the rollups on a baking sheet for about 10-15 minutes until heated through. Microwaving is quicker but may result in softer dough, so be cautious of timing.

Variations to Try

Feel free to personalize this recipe with your favorite burger toppings or spices. Incorporate diced onions, bell peppers, or jalapeños into the filling for added flavor and a hint of crunch. You can also experiment with different cheese types—pepper jack or mozzarella can offer a delicious alternative that changes the flavor profile.

For a healthier version, use ground turkey or chicken instead of beef. Additionally, whole wheat crescent dough can be used for a more nutritious base. Getting creative with your ingredients ensures that everyone can enjoy these rollups, regardless of dietary preferences.
