Makes 10-12 squares

INGREDIENTS

1 ¼ lb ground beef

8 oz can tomato sauce

1 packet (1.3 oz) Sloppy Joe Seasoning mix

2 tablespoons chopped onion

½ tsp salt

2 – 8-ounce cans of Pillsbury Crescent Rolls

2 cup grated cheddar cheese and mozzarella cheese

PREPARATION

Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Grease a 13×9x2 pan. In a large skillet, brown 1¼ lbs ground beef and then drain. Stir in tomato sauce, 1 packet of Sloppy Joe Seasoning mix, 2 tablespoons chopped onion and ½ tsp salt. Simmer 5-10 minutes. While meat mixture is simmering, break open 2 cans of the Pillsbury Crescent Rolls and separate the dough from each can into two large rectangles. You should have a total of 4 rectangles from the 2 cans of dough. Line the bottom of the 13×9x2 with 2 rectangles of dough. Spoon the hot meat mixture over the dough and sprinkle 2 cups of grated cheddar cheese over the meat mixture. Place the other 2 rectangles of dough on top of the meat mixture. Brush the top of dough lightly with a beaten egg yolk and bake for 20-25 minutes, until golden brown. Remove from oven and cool for about 10 minutes, then cut into squares.
