Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 lbs. ground beef
- 2 c. your favorite Spaghetti Sauce
- 1/4 c. onion, chopped
- 1 T. flour (or coconut flour or almond flour if you prefer)

- Separate the crescent rolls into 4 rectangles. Firmly press the perforations to seal.
- Place 3 T. of the beef mixture along one long side of each triangle. Fold the dough over the filling then press the edges to seal. Cut each triangle into 3 squares.
- Spread the remaining beef mixture in the bottom of a prepared casserole dish.
- Top it with the mozzarella cheese.
- Place the squares over the beef mixture. Don’t overcrowd them in the pan or the centers will be doughy.

- Bake for 10 to 15 minutes more until the cheese has melted & the sauce is bubbly.
