Ingredients
1 package crescent roll dough (8 oz)
16 frozen meatballs
1/2 cup marinara sauce
4 slices mozzarella cheese, cut into strips
2 tablespoons butter, melted
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon parsley
1/2 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Unroll the crescent dough and separate it into triangles. Cut each triangle in half to create smaller pieces.
- Place one strip of mozzarella cheese on each dough triangle.
- Set a meatball on top of the cheese and spoon a small amount of marinara sauce over it.
- Roll the dough around the meatball, sealing the edges, and place seam-side down on the baking sheet.
- Brush the tops with melted butter and sprinkle with garlic powder, parsley, and Parmesan cheese.
- Bake for 12–14 minutes, until golden brown and puffed. Let cool slightly before serving with extra marinara sauce for dipping.
Notes
Use just a small amount of marinara inside each roll to prevent sogginess.
Reheat leftovers in a 350°F oven for 5–7 minutes to keep them crispy.
Make ahead: assemble up to a few hours early and refrigerate until ready to bake.
For a fun twist, try adding pepperoni, olives, or different cheeses.
Freeze baked rolls and reheat at 350°F for 10–12 minutes for a quick snack.
