1/2 teaspoon salt
1 dash pepper
1 can tomato paste -- (6 oz.)

1 cup creamed cottage cheese, or Ricotta
1 egg
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
crust:
2 cans refrigerated crescent rolls (8 oz each)
2 slices Mozzarella cheese, or to equal -- (7x4 inches)
1 tablespoon milk

1 inch. Pull long sides of dough rectangle over filling, being
careful to overlap edges only 1/4 inch. Pinch overlapped
edges to seal. Brush with milk; sprinkle with sesame seed.

golden brown.
