Ingredients:
- 1 lb ground beef: The foundation of this comfort casserole.
- 1 onion finely diced: For that hint of sweetness and texture.
- 1 cup marinara sauce: Choose a brand that makes your heart sing or better yet, your homemade version!
- ½ cup sour cream: For that creamy indulgent twist.
- 8 oz shredded mozzarella cheese: Because cheese makes everything better.
- 1 package 8 oz Pillsbury Refrigerated Crescent Dinner Rolls: Your shortcut to a flaky, golden crust.
- 2 tablespoons butter melted: The golden touch.
- ¼ cup grated parmesan cheese: The perfect crust topping.
Instructions:
Preparation Station:
-
Begin by browning your ground beef together with those finely diced onions in a skillet. Once they’ve danced and melded together, drain off any excess fat.
Flavor Elevator:
-
Now, fold in your favorite marinara sauce. A sprinkle of salt and pepper to season, and your beefy mixture is ready.
Creamy Dreamy Blend:
-
In a cozy medium-sized bowl, whisk together the sour cream and mozzarella cheese until they’re well-acquainted.
Layering Time:
-
Pour the beefy mixture as the base into a 2 1/2 quart casserole dish. Gently layer your creamy cheese blend over it.
Roll Out The Carpet:
-
Unfold the crescent roll dough, laying it as a blanket over the cheese.
Buttery Finish:
-
In a cute little bowl, whisk together your melted butter and grated parmesan cheese. Drench the dough with this buttery mixture; it’s what gives it that “Oh, wow!” factor.
Bake to Perfection:
-
With your oven humming at 375°F, slide in the casserole dish. Give it a good 20-25 minutes. You’ll know it’s ready when the aroma fills your kitchen and the crust turns a gorgeous golden hue.
Serve and Revel:
-
Once baked to perfection, let it sit for a moment. Slice, serve, and watch the magic happen.

Though this Tuscan-inspired casserole feels like a grand evening meal, it’s astonishingly easy to pull together. As always, a recipe is merely a guide. Feel free to add your unique spin, and enjoy each bite!
