Ingredients

  • 8 ounces can crescent rolls

  • 1/2 cup fresh basil, chopped
  • 3 teaspoons garlic, minced
  • 8 ounces provolone cheese, thinly sliced

How odd that I click on a recipe that's called Cozy Crescent Pie and I get Garlic Basil Tomato Pie. This sort of thing happens often with this site. Very annoying.
