All spiced up, this home-cooked, old-fashioned meal is a classic that will have the gang salivating for more. Watch out, there may not be any leftovers!
What You'll Need
- 2 (8-ounce) cans refrigerated crescent rolls, divided
- 1 1/2 pound ground chuck
- 1/2 small onion, minced
- 2 cups (8 ounces) shredded Cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup water
- 1/2 cup chili sauce
- 2 tablespoons taco seasoning
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
What to Do
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Unroll 1 can crescent rolls, and press into a lightly greased 9- x 13-inch pan. Bake 10 minutes or until lightly browned.
- Cook meat and onion in a large skillet, stirring until beef crumbles and is no longer pink. Drain. Stir in cheese and remaining 5 ingredients; spoon over crust.
- Unroll remaining can of crescent rolls on a lightly floured surface, and shape into a rectangle, pressing perforations to a seal; cut into 1-inch strips. Arrange strips in a lattice design over beef mixture.
- Bake 20 minutes or until golden. Let stand 10 minutes. Serve with sour cream and salsa, if desired.
Notes
-
We love the way this casserole turns out. It has that down-home lattice crust without all the old-fashioned time and effort. Canned crescent rolls are the perfect dough to make the lattice design, and the cheesy meat filling bubbles up beneath the checkerboard crust for a real eye-catching, come-and-get-it meal.

Hi there! The Test Kitchen has not tried to freeze this casserole and is unsure at what the results would be, as crescent rolls do not usually freeze well in recipes like this one. We do not recommend freezing this recipe. Thanks!

why don't you go to a health food site if you want calorie & nutrition information?

I have seen a lot of people request nutritional info for this site. It doesn't mean you have to get nasty about it. Many sites do offer nutritional info so there is no reason MR. Food can't start doing it when they post a recipe.. I'm sure it isn't hard to do. As for me I will just figure it out myself if I need to know. Lets keep this a friendly site!!!!
