Ingredients
Before we get started, let’s gather our ingredients. Trust me, once you have everything ready, the rest is a breeze!
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 4 slices of bacon, cooked and crumbled
- 1 can (8 ounces) refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- Optional: chopped parsley for garnish
Instructions
Now, let’s dive into the step-by-step process. Remember, cooking is an art, not a science, so feel free to infuse your own flair!
- Preheat your oven to 375°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper until browned and cooked through. Drain excess fat.
- Remove from heat and stir in the shredded cheddar cheese and crumbled bacon until everything is well combined and the cheese is melted.
- Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into triangles. Place a heaping tablespoon of the beef mixture onto each triangle.
- Roll up each triangle, starting from the wide end, and place them seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
- In a small bowl, mix together the melted butter and minced garlic. Brush this garlic butter over the tops of the rollups.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown and puffed. My abuela always said to trust your nose—when it smells too good to resist, it’s probably ready!
- Garnish with chopped parsley if desired, and serve warm.
