This delightful and easy-to-make recipe will be a hit at your next gathering. Cheese lovers and fans of a little spicy kick, get ready for a treat! We’re making Cheesy Chile Verde Rolls, a twist on the classic croissant, packed with savory beef, spicy jalapeños, and melting Monterrey Jack cheese, all brought together with a tangy green salsa. Whether you're short on time or simply seeking some comfort food with a touch of indulgence, this recipe is perfect for you.

Ingredients:

🥐 1 tube of croissant dough sheet
🧅 1/4 cup chopped onion
🌶️ 1-2 chopped jalapeños, to taste
🐄 1 pack of cooked shredded beef
🧀 1 1/2 cups shredded Monterrey Jack cheese
🍯 Your favorite green salsa (to taste)

Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 20 minutes
Total Time: 30 minutes
Equipment: Cupcake pan, oven, chopping board, knife, grater (if cheese is not pre-shredded).
Servings: Makes 8-12 rolls, depending on size.

Instructions:

Preheat your oven to 380°F (193°C).
Unroll the croissant dough sheet onto a flat, clean surface. If there are any perforations, gently pinch them together to make a continuous dough sheet.
Spread a layer of green salsa over the dough to your liking; this will add moisture and flavor to your rolls.
Evenly sprinkle the chopped onion and jalapeños over the salsa-covered dough sheet, distributing the ingredients for balanced flavor in every bite.
Layer the cooked shredded beef on top of the onions and jalapeños. Ensure it’s evenly spread so every roll will be packed with meaty goodness.
Generously sprinkle shredded Monterrey Jack cheese over the beef. The cheese will melt into all the ingredients, creating a gooey, delicious filling.
Starting from one end, carefully roll the dough sheet into a log, ensuring the fillings stay inside. Press lightly to seal the edge.
Using a sharp knife, slice the log into 1 to 1 1/2-inch thick pieces.
Place each piece into the cups of a cupcake pan. If you don’t have a cupcake pan, you can use a baking sheet but make sure to space them out nicely.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.
Let them cool for a couple of minutes before serving, as the cheese will be extremely hot.

Cooking Tips:

Adjust the amount of green salsa and jalapeños according to your preference for spiciness.
If you don’t have a cupcake pan, you can also place the rolls close together on a regular baking sheet to help them hold their shape.
