Garlic Butter Cheesy Crescent Rolls - amazing crescent rolls loaded with Mozzarella cheese and topped with garlic herb butter. Easy recipe that takes 20 mins!!
Ever since I learned how to make garlic herb cheese bombs, my son is hooked on them for his snack.
I love it that he likes to eat cheese, at least I know he is getting good nutrition from cheese.
The problem is that he is starting to get bored with the cheese bombs and asked for something else to bring to his school.
So I made these garlic butter cheesy crescent rolls and he loved them.
In fact, he said that he loves these crescent rolls better than cheese bombs now.
I have to agree, I think they are indeed better with the flakier dough.
Yummy!
I learned the recipe from The Comfort of Cooking, but changed things up and simplify the recipe.
I am all about easy and simple recipes…after all, we are mostly busy moms who have to take care of a zillion family things and chores every single day.
I am fine with instant dough; not everything has to be made from scratch.
I used Pillsbury original crescent rolls for the recipe.
You basically just roll out the dough, and then tuck the mozzarella cheese stick onto it.
Fold on both sides and roll to form a croissant shape.
Brush the top with some garlic herb butter, shove them into the oven, and you’ll have the most amazing cheesy crescent rolls.
The key is to eat these babies when they are fresh off the oven because the melted mozzarella cheese comes oozing out like a lava, and straight into your mouth.
Oh so good!!
My son asked for three after his school and finished all of them.
The next morning, he ate another two for his breakfast and packed two for his school snack.
This recipe is easy peasy and even I don’t mind having them.

Goulash is a German dish originally; but, in the southern states of the United States, Goulash, is:
1 lb. hamburger meat—browned in a large skillet with salt, pepper, and garlic powder to taste;
2 cloves minced fresh garlic, and
1 medium sized chopped onion.
1-28 oz. can of whole tomatoes with juice is added to the cooked hamburger meat.
2-14.5 oz. Cans Zucchini with tomato sauce
1-12 oz. Bag of elbow macaroni
Cover with water and bring to a boil until macaroni is tender.
Turn temperature down to simmer and add your choice of cheesy to the top. I use thin slices of a velveeta block and cover the top. Put a lid on it and let the cheese melt.
Serve with a salad and a garlic butter crescent rolls or garlic bread
Thanks for your information!

Most people use corn instead of zucchini
