Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb bulk breakfast sausage
  • 1 can (8 oz) refrigerated crescent rolls
  • 8 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup whole milk
  • 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • Sliced green onions, for garnish (optional)

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F. Brown sausage in a skillet over medium heat, breaking it up, about 6 to 8 minutes, until no pink remains. Drain fat and set aside.
  2. Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish. Press crescent roll dough into the bottom and slightly up the sides, pinching perforations to seal.
  3. Whisk eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until smooth. Stir in cheese and sausage, then pour over the dough.
  4. Bake 25 to 30 minutes, until the center is set and the top is puffed and golden.
  5. Let rest 5 minutes, then slice into squares and serve warm.

Notes

For a make-ahead option, assemble the casserole the night before, cover and refrigerate, then bake as directed adding 5 to 10 minutes. Let the casserole rest 5 minutes before slicing so it sets cleanly.
