Italian Crescent Roll Casserole

This recipe came from recipezaar.

The time of year has me in a rush with birthdays, weddings, graduations and showers. This recipe was something quick for fast times because you use a canned crescent roll.

I will say that the crescent roll that I have been making would have been better on the recipe if only I had the time. Those rolls are not quite as flakey as a canned but I do love them since I have made them time and again since my original experiment. Maybe next time, but for now the recipe as taken from original source will do. Besides canned crescents were on sale my last shop trip.

I added fresh chopped parsley on top simply because I could.
