Description
A delicious and easy breakfast casserole featuring fluffy eggs, savory sausage, and melted cheese wrapped in a crescent roll crust.
Ingredients
- 1 package crescent roll dough (8 oz)
- 6 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 8 oz breakfast sausage
- 1 1/2 cups shredded cheese (cheddar recommended)
- 1/2 cup chopped onions
- 1/2 cup diced bell peppers
- 1/2 cup sliced mushrooms
- Fresh herbs (parsley, chives, or thyme)
- Diced jalapeños or crushed red pepper flakes for spice
Instructions
- Brown the breakfast sausage in a skillet over medium heat until fully cooked and browned. Drain excess grease and set aside to cool.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until smooth.
- Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish. Unroll the crescent roll dough, pressing seams together to form a solid crust covering the bottom and sides of the dish.
- Sprinkle cooked sausage evenly over the dough. Add a layer of shredded cheese and any veggies or herbs.
- Pour egg mixture evenly over layered ingredients, allowing it to soak in.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 30-35 minutes until eggs are set and crust is golden brown. Let it cool slightly before serving.
Notes
Use a mix of cheeses for richer flavor. Feel free to add or substitute veggies based on availability.
