Instructions:
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the mozzarella cheese and cream cheese. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until fully melted and well combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs. Add the almond flour, baking powder, garlic powder, and dried Italian herbs. Mix well.
  4. Combine the melted cheese mixture with the almond flour mixture and mix until a dough forms.
  5. Roll out the Dough: Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper and roll it out into a rectangle.
  6. Carefully remove the top layer of parchment paper and set it aside. Spread the ground sausage or beef evenly over the dough.
  7. Using the bottom layer of parchment paper, start rolling the dough from one end to create a log.
  8. Slice the log into 1-inch sections.
  9. Prepare the Casserole Filling: In a skillet, cook the ground sausage or beef over medium heat until browned. Add chopped onions and garlic, and cook until the onions are translucent. Drain excess fat.
  10. Stir in the marinara sauce and simmer for a few minutes.
  11. In a baking dish, spread the meat and marinara mixture evenly. Place the sliced “crescent” pieces on top.
  12. Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese over the top, and add black olives if desired. Finish with a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese.
  13. Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  14. Garnish and Serve: Remove from the oven, garnish with fresh basil if desired, and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
