Breakfast Sausage Crescent Casserole

I've made several different breakfast casseroles before but never with crescent/croissant pastry to make a crust. I slightly burnt my crust so I've adjusted the temperature and baking time below to hopefully perfect this dish in the future. This recipe is perfect for breakfast or brunch and you can modify the meat/veggie ingredients to your liking. I went with maple breakfast sausage and orange bell peppers this time around and we loved the end result. Other ingredients I recommend are mushrooms, green peppers, chopped ham and shredded Swiss cheese.

Ingredients:

1 can refrigerated crescent/croissant dinner rolls

1 cup cooked breakfast sausage, chopped

1 medium orange bell pepper, chopped

1.5 cups shredded cheddar cheese

6 eggs

What To Do:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Unroll crescent dough and press onto the bottom of an ungreased glass baking dish. Use your fingers to press dough together and prick all over with a fork.
2. Bake for 7 minutes or crust is cooked but not brown.
3. In a medium bowl, beat eggs and then stir in chopped pepper, breakfast sausage and shredded cheese.
4. Bake for 20 minutes or until the eggs are set in the center of the dish and the crust is browned.

Enjoy!
