Notes
- Substitute whatever cheese you like best.
- Feel free to use homemade marinara sauce or homemade meatballs.
- This recipe works better in the oven than in an air fryer. I tried air frying and found the meatballs weren't cooked through when the crescent rolls were done. So, stick with the oven to avoid frozen meatballs and burnt crescent rolls.
