Crescent Roll Lasagna Recipe with Sausage and Ground Beef (Crafty Crescent Lasagna)
This crescent roll lasagna recipe swaps traditional pasta sheets for soft crescent-style dough layers, making assembly quick and tidy. You’ll cook a savory sausage-and-beef tomato paste sauce, whisk a simple cottage-cheese layer, then stack everything and bake until bubbly. Ingredients (malzemeleri) and how to make it (nasıl yapılır) are right below.
Ingredients
1. For the meat sauce
2. For the cheese layer
3. For topping
Step-by-Step Method
Preheat and prep the pan
Heat the oven to 190°C / 375°F. Lightly grease a medium baking dish so the slices lift cleanly later.
Cook the onion and meats
Set a skillet over medium heat. Sauté the onion until softened, then add sausage and ground beef. Cook, breaking it up, until browned and most moisture is gone.
Build the sauce
Stir in tomato paste and garlic and cook for 1–2 minutes so it mellows. Add parsley, basil, oregano, salt, and pepper, then simmer briefly until the sauce looks cohesive.
Whisk the cheese mixture
In a bowl, mix cottage cheese, egg, Parmesan, and milk until smooth. You want it pourable; thin with a splash more milk if needed.
Layer everything
Spread a thin layer of meat sauce in the baking dish. Spoon over some cheese mixture and sprinkle mozzarella. Repeat the layers until used up, finishing with mozzarella on top.
Top with sesame and bake
Scatter sesame seeds over the top. Bake about 30 minutes, until bubbly and lightly browned. If it browns too fast, tent loosely with foil.
Rest, then serve
Let it sit for 10 minutes so it sets up a bit. Slice and serve warm.
