Description

This homemade seasoned meatloaf Wellington recipe is covered with a crescent roll dough crust in this easy and family-friendly spin on beef Wellington.

Ingredients

2 tablespoons butter
1 onion, chopped
1 egg
1 1/2 pounds lean ground beef
1/2 cup bread crumbs
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon minced garlic
1 pinch parsley flakes, or to taste
1 (8 ounce) package refrigerated crescent rolls
1 egg
1 tablespoon water

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2 Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion; cook and stir until softened, about 5 minutes.
3 Beat 1 egg in a large bowl until foamy. Add onion, ground beef, bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, salt, pepper, and garlic; mix until combined. Mold mixture into a loaf on a baking sheet.
4 Unroll crescent rolls and use to cover meatloaf completely, seaming seals and perforations so that no meat is visible.
5 Whisk remaining egg and water in a small bowl to make egg wash. Brush egg wash over crust.
6 Bake meatloaf in the preheated oven until crust is very dark and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C), about 45 minutes.
