Crescent Roll Lasagna

Crescent Roll Lasagna

Look at all that creamy, meaty goodness!!
This is a really easy and delicious week night meal-I know you all are gonna be needing recipes like this one during this very busy Christmas season!!!
The good thing about this recipe is the basic ingredients-you’ll probably have most of them on hand!:)
Basically, it’s a layer of seasoned ground beef mixed up with some tomato paste, topped with a layer of jazzed-up cream cheese (you could also use ricotta or cottage cheese), topped with tons of mozzarella cheese, all wrapped up in crescent rolls that are doused with Italian-seasoned butter. Needless to say, this was a huuuge hit with everyone in my family, and Joe’s already clamoring for me to make it again. I think this will become a fixture in our house pretty quickly.
