This is a Pampered Chef recipe, that I had at a girlfriends party that she hosted, where it was of course , served as a party snack/appetizer. I thought it was quite yummy and I have since made it at home as a main dish with a salad. Ingredients:
1 medium green pepper |
1/2 cup onion |
3/4 lb lean ground beef |
1 clove garlic, pressed |
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese |
1 (7 1/2 ounce) can pizza sauce, divided |
1 teaspoon dried italian seasoning |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
2 (235 g) packages crescent rolls (16 triangles) |
2 tablespoons fresh parmesan cheese |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375.
2. Cut top off green pepper, (a v- shaped cutter makes this a nice presentation.) remove stem, discard membrane& seeds.
3. Reserve bottom of pepper (to serve pizza sauce in later).
4. Chop the top of the pepper to make 1/4 of a cup.
5. Chop onion.
6. Cook& stir ground beef, green pepper, onion and garlic in skillet over med-high heat until meat is no longer pink.
7. Remove from heat& drain.
8. Shred mozzarella cheese, combine meat mixture& cheese, 1/4 cup of the pizza sauce, Italian seasoning& salt.
9. To assemble the ring: Unroll crescent dough, separate into 16 triangles.
10. Arrange triangles in a circle on a round baking/pizza pan, with wide ends of triangles overlapping in the centre& the points of the dough towards the outside.
11. (there should be a 5 inch/ 12. 5 cm) diameter in the centre of pan.
12. Scoop meat mixture evenly onto widest end of each triangle.
13. Bring points of triangles up over meat filling and tuck under the wide ends of the dough at the centre of the ring.
14. (Filling will not be completely covered.) Bake 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
15. Grate fresh parmesan cheese over top with cheese grater.
16. Heat remaining pizza sauce and fill green pepper bottom, place in center of the ring.
17. To serve, cut into wedges& serve with the pizza sauce.
