Ingredients

  • 1 package crescent roll dough or similar pastry sheet
  • 1 cup chopped broccoli florets
  • ½ green bell pepper diced
  • ½ cup cottage cheese
  • ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • Dill fresh or dried, to taste
  • Salt & freshly ground pepper

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (≈ 175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Unroll thecrescent roll dough (or pastry), flatten seams to create a single sheet, pressing edges together so filling won’t spill.
  • In a bowl, combine broccoli, diced bell pepper, cottage cheese, shredded cheddar, dill, salt and pepper. Mix until filling is even.
  • Spoon mixture over the center of the dough sheet, leaving edges free for folding or braiding.
  • Fold or braid the pastry edges over the filling; pinch or tuck seams so filling is well enclosed.
  • Place on baking sheet and bake for 25‑30 minutes, until pastry is golden brown and filling is set.
  • Let rest about 5 minutes before slicing into 6 pieces to help filling firm up slightly.

Notes

  • Chop broccoli into small, even pieces so it cooks through in same time as pastry browns.
  • Use sharp cheddar for stronger flavor; mild cheddar if you prefer gentler taste.
  • If edges of pastry begin browning too fast, cover loosely with foil.
  • Use full baking time—opening oven early can cause pastry to collapse.
  • Let rest after baking so slicing is clean and filling doesn’t spill.
