Cooking Steps
-
Adjust racks to top and middle positions and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry produce.
-
Trim, peel, and cut carrots on a diagonal into ½-inch-thick pieces.
-
Toss carrots on a baking sheet with a large drizzle of oil. Season with salt and pepper. Roast on top rack until tender, 25-30 minutes.
-
Unroll Crescent Rolls and separate into 4 triangles (8 triangles for 4 servings). Cut each triangle lengthwise down the center to create 8 smaller triangles (16 triangles for 4).
-
Form each triangle into a loose roll by folding the ends over each other; smooth and shape into balls. Sprinkle half the Italian cheese blend (all for 4) over tops.
-
Coat a second baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray; arrange cheesy rolls on prepared sheet. Bake on middle rack until golden brown, 8-10 minutes.
-
Meanwhile, grate garlic into a large microwave-safe bowl. Trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens.
-
Pat pork* dry with paper towels and season all over with salt and pepper.
-
Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add pork and cook until browned and cooked through, 4-6 minutes per side. Turn off heat; transfer to a plate. Wipe out pan and let cool slightly.
-
Add 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4 servings) to bowl with garlic. Microwave until melted, 30-60 seconds.
-
Once cheesy Crescent Rolls are finished baking, carefully transfer to bowl with garlic butter. Toss to coat; season with salt.
-
Heat a drizzle of oil in pan used for pork over medium-high heat. Add scallion whites; cook, stirring, until fragrant, 30-60 seconds. Stir in stock concentrate and ¼ cup water (⅓ cup for 4 servings). Bring to a simmer; cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly reduced, 1-2 minutes more.
-
Remove from heat and whisk in sour cream. Season generously with pepper.
-
Divide pork, carrots, and cheesy garlic Crescent Rolls between plates. Spoon creamy scallion sauce over pork and garnish with scallion greens. Serve.

Review summary
Updated on Dec 2025- Flavor: Many loved the creamy scallion sauce on the pork, while the cheesy garlic rolls were a hit with both adults and kids 🍲.
- Ease of prep: Some found the rolls tricky to assemble, suggesting putting cheese inside rather than on top for better results.
- Suggestions: Consider stuffing rolls with cheese before baking, and adjust cooking time to avoid burning the bottoms.
- Portions: Several wanted more rolls, as they were a favorite part of the meal for many families.
- Sauce: A few found the sauce thin; try reducing it longer or adding a thickener for a richer consistency.
Reviews from our home cooks
It's wonderful - another favorite. The time to prepare looks daunting but it is only because of the time waiting for the carrots. I will admit, I knew the sauce would be fantastic due to an earlier recipe that used a very similar (if not identical) mix of ingredients. I was concerned I would be disappointed with the number of cheesy garlic rolls but it was perfect, possibly because of the abundant carrots.
Good flavors with the sauce and garlic cheese rolls. The rolls were a nice change from the usual rice or potatoes and were very helpful for soaking up the excess sauce since it was a little thin. Nothing complicated with the carrots and pork chops. Very good meal!
The crescent garlic rolls were amazing, crunchy on the outside and fluffy on the inside! The sauce for the pork was delicious!
We loved the carrots and rolls...and we even got 5 pieces of pork, instead of 4, which made my husband really happy. The scallion sauce was delicious!!
The crescent rolls did not work at all as shown in the picture. The cheese didn't stick to the rolls and just pooled on the baking sheet, so they were no longer really round. The carrots were HUGE and tough. And I really really don't like constantly "roasting" veggies on baking sheets. I have no problem with steaming them especially if the rest of the recipe has good flavors.
We're not really into pork or cooking with pork, but this was nice change from the routine of chicken or beef. The Cheesy garlic rolls were a little hard to make but if we get this again (and we probably will) we know how we would adapt it. And a roasted carrot is always welcomed on our plates.
The cheesy garlic rolls tasted good, but it was more about the garlic and less about the cheese. The cheese did not remain on the roll when sprinkled it on. Perhaps if the directions suggested slightly wetting the top of the rolls?? I don't know if that would work or not.
Pork and pan sauce were great. The rolls were tasty, but there was no possible way to incorporate the amount of cheese provided, and I even innovated and included cheese inside. Even so I only used half the cheese. Finally, I think the vegetable component needed more than just carrots, and there wasn't enough veg in general - which would be a criticism I've generally had for all of the meals so far. Maybe offer some upgrade options aimed at "eating the rainbow" and giving a playful nod toward a plant-based diet.
My husband and I tried this just last night and both said we would definitely get again. The sauce to put over the pork is wonderful! I even put some sauce over my carrots just to add more flavor. I would really like to see HelloFresh invest in making options for veggies to swap out. That is coming from a woman with a very picky eater (husband). He does not eat carrots or green beans.
I am more of a fan of pork chops than my kid (they don't like fat) but we both really enjoyed this meal. My kid especially liked the garlic rolls, and we both loved the sauce!
