- 1 teaspoon oil (olive oil)
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1/2 cup onion (diced)
- 2 garlic cloves (minced)
- 1 teaspoon hot pepper sauce (Tabasco)
- 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon Cajun seasoning
- 1 cup spaghetti sauce (your choice)

How to Make
-
Step 1: Preheat oven to 375F; spray a 9" glass deep dish pie plate with cooking spray.
-
Step 2: Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat; add ground beef and cook, stirring to break apart, for 5 minutes.
-
Step 3: Add onion and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, another 5 minutes; drain, then return to pan.
-
Step 4: Add Tabasco, Italian seasoning, Cajun seasoning, and spaghetti sauce to pan; cook and stir 5 minutes until starting to bubble.
How to Make
-
Step 5: Meanwhile, in a separate bowl combine sour cream, cheddar cheese, garlic powder and white pepper.
-
Step 6: Spread meat mixture in bottom of pie plate; spread sour cream mixture over top.
-
Step 7: Roll out crescent dough and separate into triangles; fit triangles, overlapping as necessary, to cover top of casserole. *You may end up with one extra, depending on how you lay them out. They should slightly overlap as you make your way around the edge.
-
Step 8: Combine butter, Parmesan and garlic powder and spread over dough.
-
Step 9: Bake at 375F for 20 minutes, until top is golden brown; let stand 5 minutes before serving (you'll need to use a spoon, this is definitely not a pie).
