There are some recipe ideas out there that are just complete genius. And this is one of those meals! Not only are these little buggers good, but they're totally fun to eat. Brycen loved dipping the crescent roll into the Au Jus with his hands. Did I say Brycen? I meant my husband. They both loved this dinner and so did I! It's a really fun way to make french dip sandwiches. I think it took about 3 or 4 minutes to get them prepared. Then they just had to bake and the Au Jus had to simmer. It was so easy and yummy! This is definitely a new go-to recipe that we'll be making for a long time.French Dip Crescents
Mama Loves Food
makes 16 roll ups
- 2 tubes of crescent rolls, 8 count
- 1 lb. deli roast beef, sliced thin (size 1 1/2 at the deli)
- 16 slices Swiss cheese (I bought a package of the pre-sliced Swiss cheese and cut each slice in half. It was cheaper and much easier that way!)
- Au Jus, for dipping (I just bought a little container of Au Jus at Walmart. Easy!)
- horseradish (optional)
Unroll 8 of the crescents on a standard cookie sheet. You'll want to flatten them out a little bit so they're not so thick and bake easier/better.
If using horseradish, spread a small dab on the crescent roll then cover with a slice of roast beef.
Then place a piece of cheese over the roast beef.
Roll the crescents starting from the wide end and ending at the narrow end, pressing down on the narrow end so the roll stays together.
Bake at 375 degrees for 11 - 13 minutes, or until the crescents are a golden color. Repeat with the other 8 crescent rolls or save them for another meal. Serve with hot Au Jus. Enjoy!
