Ingredients

Scale

For the Base:

  • 2 cans (8 oz each) refrigerated crescent roll dough
  • 8 slices deli ham
  • 8 slices Genoa salami
  • 8 slices provolone cheese
  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese

For the Sauce:

  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • ¼ cup sour cream
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp onion powder
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard

Optional Add-Ins:

 

  • Sliced black olives
  • Roasted red peppers
  • Fresh basil or parsley (for garnish)

Instructions

  • Prepare the Crescent Roll Base:

    • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
    • Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
    • Unroll one can of crescent dough and press it into the bottom of the dish, sealing any perforations to create an even layer.
  • Layer the Fillings:

    • Evenly layer the ham, salami, and provolone cheese over the crescent dough.
    • In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise, sour cream, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, and Dijon mustard.
    • Spread the sauce mixture evenly over the layered meats and cheese.
    • Sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese and any optional add-ins like olives or roasted red peppers.
  • Add the Top Layer:

    • Unroll the second can of crescent dough and gently lay it over the filling.
    • Press the edges to seal and create a complete sandwich bake.
    • Brush the top with melted butter or olive oil for a golden, flaky finish.

 

  • Bake the Dish:

    • Place in the oven and bake for 20–25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
    • Allow to cool for 5 minutes before slicing into squares or rectangles for serving.

Notes

  • For extra crispiness, bake an additional 3–5 minutes if needed.
  • Make it ahead: Assemble the dish, cover, and refrigerate overnight. Bake just before serving.
  • Spice it up: Add red pepper flakes or sliced jalapeños for a bit of heat.

 

  • Gluten-free option: Use gluten-free crescent roll dough or a gluten-free flatbread alternative.
