Meatball Mummies

mummy meatballs in a tray

Ingredients

▢1 pound lean ground beef
▢¼ cup breadcrumbs
▢¼ cup parmesan cheese
▢1 egg
▢½ teaspoon italian seasoning
▢½ teaspoon minced dried onion
▢½ teaspoon garlic powder
▢8 ounce crescent roll dough
▢Candy eyes
▢Marinara for dipping.

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
In a mixing bowl combine your ground beef, breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese, egg, italian seasoning, minced dried onion and garlic powder.
Once fully combined separate the meat into 8 equal portions.
Roll the portions into a log shape.
You can either bake or pan fry the meat. They will cook a bit later too so they do not need to be cooked all the way through. I cook them on the stove in a medium skillet over medium heat for about 10 minutes, flipping once or twice. But you can just pop them in the preheated oven for about 12 minutes.
Set the cooked meat on a paper towel lined plate to cool slightly.
Meanwhile slice your crescent rolls into long strips.
Start wrapping your meatball mummys with the dough strips leaving out a little space for the eyes.
Place on a parchment lined baking.
Bake for 12-15 minutes until the dough is golden.
Remove from the oven.
Using marinara sauce stick the eye onto the face while they are still warm.
Serve with marinara sauce for dipping.
