French Dip Crescents

French dip sandwich wrapped in a crescent roll....W-O-W.  For some reason these called to me from the scores of crescent roll recipes that litter Pinterest and I had to make them.  Probably because anything that says "french dip" on it makes my mouth water.  HOLY COW.  So scrumptious and EASY!

Ingredients:  crescent rolls, roast beef, provolone cheese, mayonnaise, sour cream, horse radish, olive oil, red onion, garlic, white wine, worcestershire sauce and beef broth.  The recipe calls for flour...but I ended up omitting it.

To make the horseradish sauce, mix equal parts mayo and sour cream.

And horseradish to taste.

Mix it all together.  Reserve some for dipping later...

Unroll the crescents on a baking sheet.

Spread on a little of the horseradish sauce.

Layer with a slice of roast beef.

And 1/2 a slice of provolone.

Then roll them up starting at the wide end and ending at the narrow end.

Bake at 375 degrees for about 13 minutes.

To make the au jus, chop the onion and saute in the oil on low heat for about 20 minutes until caramelized.

Throw in some minced garlic the last minute or so.

The deglaze the pan with the white wine and worcestershire.

Add the beef broth and bring to a boil.

Reduce the heat and simmer for about 30 minutes.

Strain and discard the solids.

Serve the crescents with the au jus and reserved horseradish sauce.  These are like little french dip sliders.  Perfect for a party or a casual dinner with the hubs.  We ate these with my caesar salad for a casual but elegant Friday night dinner.  Enjoy!
