To make this casserole, I started by dicing some yellow onions and pickles.

 STEP 1: 

I dropped some lean ground beef into a large skillet over medium-high heat.

I crumbled the ground beef well as it cooked.

 STEP 4: 

I sprayed a 9 x 13 inch baking dish with cooking spray.

I unrolled a sheet of Pillsbury crescent dough and placed it in the bottom of the baking dish.

I gently pressed the dough out to cover the bottom and go up the sides of the dish.

I poured the ground beef mixture over the crescent dough and spread it out evenly.
