Kitchen Equipment You’ll Need

• Oven
• Small bowl
• Whisk or fork
• Cookie sheet

Ingredients

• 5 eggs
• 1 can (8 oz) Pillsbury™ refrigerated crescent dinner rolls
• 8 fully cooked breakfast sausage links
• 4 slices (sandwich-size) Cheddar cheese
• Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. In a small bowl, beat the eggs. Reserve 2 tablespoons of the beaten eggs for brushing on the tops of the crescent rolls later. Scramble the remaining eggs in a skillet over medium heat until fully cooked.
3. Unroll the crescent dough onto a work surface and separate it into 8 triangles.
4. Cut each cheese slice in half and place one half on each triangle.
5. Add a spoonful of scrambled eggs and one sausage link to each triangle.
6. Loosely roll up each triangle, starting from the wider end, following the package directions.
7. Place the rolls on an ungreased cookie sheet.
8. Brush the reserved beaten egg on top of each roll and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
9. Bake for 15 to 18 minutes or until the rolls are golden brown.

Tips for Success

• Ensure the scrambled eggs are not too runny; this will help keep the rolls from becoming soggy.
• Feel free to experiment with different cheeses or add some chopped veggies for extra flavor.

Additional Tips and Variations

• Try using spicy sausage for a kick or turkey sausage for a lighter option.
• For a vegetarian version, substitute sausage with sautéed mushrooms or spinach.
