Equipment

  • 9x13-inch baking dish
  • oven
  • small bowl

Ingredients
  

For the Base

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

For the Sauce

  • 0.5 cup mayonnaise
  • 0.25 cup sour cream
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 tablespoon 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.
