Ingredients
Eggs
- 5 eggs
Dough
- 1 can (8 oz) Pillsbury™ refrigerated crescent dinner rolls
Meat
- 8 sausage links
Dairy
- 4 slices Cheddar cheese
Seasoning
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the roll-ups later.
- Beat Eggs: In a small bowl, beat all 5 eggs, but reserve 2 tablespoons of the beaten eggs for brushing the crescent rolls in a later step.
- Scramble Eggs: Using the remaining beaten eggs, scramble them gently until cooked through but still moist and fluffy.
- Prepare Dough: Unroll the refrigerated crescent dough on a clean work surface and separate it into 8 individual triangles.
- Add Cheese: Cut each cheddar cheese slice in half, placing one half on each crescent triangle.
- Add Filling: Spoon a portion of scrambled eggs on top of the cheese, then place one sausage link on each triangle.
- Roll Up: Loosely roll each crescent triangle up around the filling and arrange the roll-ups on an ungreased cookie sheet.
- Brush and Season: Brush the tops of the roll-ups with the reserved 2 tablespoons of beaten eggs to promote browning, then sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 15 to 18 minutes or until the roll-ups are golden brown and cooked through.
Notes
- For a spicier version, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or chopped jalapeños to the scrambled eggs.
- Use turkey sausage links for a leaner alternative.
- Make sure not to overfill the rolls to prevent leakage during baking.
- These roll-ups can be prepared ahead of time and refrigerated before baking; just add a few extra minutes to the bake time if baking from cold.
- Serve warm with salsa or ketchup for added flavor.
