Ingredients

• 1 pound Ground sausage
• 1 large Yellow onion
• 1 tube Crescent roll dough
• 2 cups Shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Dried Italian seasoning
• 1 tablespoon All-purpose flour (for dusting)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper.

Step 3

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.

Step 4

Dice the onion and add it to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is soft and golden brown, about 8 minutes.

Step 5

Add the ground sausage to the skillet. Break it up with a wooden spoon and cook until fully browned. Drain excess grease.

Step 6

Stir in salt, black pepper, and Italian seasoning. Mix well and remove the skillet from heat. Let the mixture cool slightly.

Step 7

On a lightly floured surface, unroll the crescent roll dough and press it into the prepared baking dish, ensuring it covers the bottom and slightly up the sides. Seal any perforations in the dough.

Step 8

Spread the sausage and onion mixture evenly over the crescent dough base.

Step 9

Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the top, ensuring even coverage.

Step 10

Bake in the preheated oven for 15–18 minutes, or until the dough is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Step 11

Remove from the oven and allow the dish to cool slightly, about 5 minutes.

Step 12

Cut into squares and serve warm. Enjoy!
