Savory Crescent Roll Bake
Ingredients:
- 2 cans of crescent roll dough
- 1 pound of breakfast sausage (or any sausage of your choice)
- 6 large eggs
- 1 cup of milk
- 1 cup of shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or your favorite)
- 1/2 cup of diced bell peppers (optional)
- 1/2 cup of diced onion (optional)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh herbs (like parsley or chives) for garnish (optional)
Instructions:
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Cook the Sausage: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the sausage until browned and fully cooked. If using, add diced onions and bell peppers and sauté until softened. Drain excess fat.
- Prepare the Crescent Roll Base: Unroll one can of crescent rolls and press the dough into the bottom of a greased 9×13 inch baking dish. Make sure to seal any perforations.
- Add the Sausage Mixture: Spread the cooked sausage mixture evenly over the crescent roll base.

- Add Cheese: Sprinkle the shredded cheese evenly on top.
- Top with Remaining Crescent Rolls: Unroll the second can of crescent rolls and lay them on top of the cheese layer. You can press them down lightly.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the egg is set.
- Serve: Allow to cool slightly before slicing. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired.
Tips:
- Feel free to customize the filling with vegetables like spinach or mushrooms.
