Time 25m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup cooked broccoli
1/3 cup chopped green onion
1/2 cup mozzarella cheese
1 teaspoon seasoning salt
1/2 teaspoon basil
8 ounces refrigerated crescent dinner rolls

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Coat baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Mix everything but the crescent rolls in a medium bowl.
  • Unroll the crescent roll dough. Mine usually comes in a rectangle that I have to break apart to make the crescent shapes. Don't do that! Leave it rectangular. If yours is different, just shape it into a rectangle.
  • Spread the broccoli mixture over the dough, leaving just 1/2 an inch free on one of the long sides.
  • Roll the dough up like a cinnamon roll starting with the long side you left empty. Pinch the dough together at the end to seal the seams. Place the seam side down on the baking sheet.
  • Bake until golden, about 15 minutes.

BROCCOLI CHEESE BAKE



Broccoli Cheese Bake image

This is a great casserole that I threw together one day when a friend requested Broccoli au Gratin for her birthday dinner. This is a great idea for those who aren't big fans of bread crumbs. Also, the eggs can be taken out for a great sauce and using skim milk and fat-free cheese works well, too. It's basically a great recipe that can be easily altered according to taste. Enjoy!
