I absolutely loved this! It has all the flavors of lasagna on top of a crescent roll crust. This dish is assembled as it bakes. You bake the crust for a few minutes, add the meat, bake, add the cheese layer and bake some more. I browned the meat ahead of time so this didn't have any real prep work. I just prepared the next layer while the current layer baked. We both really liked this. It was even good reheated the next day. Serve this with a side salad for a quick Italian feast!

Do you think this would work with a regular pie crust?
question, do we use spaghetti or marinara sauce? in the directions spaghetti sauce is listed.
and what about the regular pie crust? will it work or is it not flake enough like crescent roll dough.
thanks
Sthrngal - I consider spaghetti sauce and marinara to be the same thing. I am not sure how a pie crust would work. You could give it a try
