How to Make Swiss Beef Crescent Ring

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine 1/2 cup chopped onion, 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard, 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, 1/4 cup softened margarine, and 1 tablespoon lemon juice. Mix well.
  3. Add 1 cup shredded Swiss cheese, 1/2 cup chopped bell peppers (any color), 1/2 cup sliced mushrooms, and 2 cups diced leftover roast beef. Gently mix until combined.
  4. Separate one 8-count can of Pillsbury crescent roll dough into 8 triangles and place on a lightly greased baking sheet.
  5. Arrange the triangles in a circle, overlapping the wide bases to form a ring. The center opening should be about 3 inches in diameter. Point the tips of the triangles outwards.
  6. Spoon the beef mixture evenly into the center of the crescent ring, distributing it over the overlapping bases.
  7. Fold the points of each triangle over the filling and tuck them under the base at the center of the circle, completely enclosing the filling.
  8. Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until the crescent dough is golden brown and the filling is heated through.
  9. Remove from oven and let cool for 5-10 minutes before serving. Serve warm with a fresh salad for a complete meal.
  10. Enjoy your impressive and surprisingly easy Swiss Beef Crescent Ring!
