In this recipe, a crescent dough crust is stuffed with a well-seasoned meat and cheese filling. It's a creative way to get to a great-tasting lasagna.


   MEAT FILLING
   1/2 pound pork sausage
   1/2 pound ground beef
   3/4 cup chopped onions
   1 tablespoon dried parsley flakes
   1/2 teaspoon dried basil leaves
   1/2 teaspoon dried oregano leaves
   1 clove (small) garlic, minced
   Dash pepper
   1 (6-ounce) can tomato paste
   
   CHEESE FILLING
   1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
   1 cup creamed cottage cheese
   1 egg
   
   CRUST
   2 (8-ounce) cans refrigerated crescent rolls
   2 slices (7 x 4-inch) mozzarella cheese
   1 tablespoon milk
   1 tablespoon sesame seeds


Heat oven to 375°F. In large skillet, brown sausage and ground beef; drain. Stir in remaining meat filling ingredients; simmer uncovered 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

In small bowl, combine all cheese filling ingredients; blend well. Unroll dough into 4 long rectangles. Place on ungreased cookie sheet with long sides overlapping 1/2 inch; firmly press edges and perforations to seal. Press or roll out to form 15 x 13-inch rectangle. Spoon half of meat filling mixture in 6-inch strip lengthwise down center of dough to within 1 inch of each end. Spoon cheese filling mixture over meat mixture; top with remaining meat mixture. Arrange mozzarella cheese slices over meat mixture. Fold shortest sides of dough 1 inch over filling. Fold long sides of dough tightly over filling, overlapping edges in center 1/4 inch; firmly pinch center seam and ends to seal. Brush with milk; sprinkle with sesame seed. Bake at 375°F. for 23 to 27 minutes or until deep golden brown.

TIP: To reheat, wrap loosely in foil; heat at 375°F. for 18 to 20 minutes or until warm.
