Ingredients

Egg Mixture:

  • 4 eggs
  • 2 tablespoons red bell pepper, finely diced
  • 1 tablespoon milk
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

The Base & Fillings:

  • 2 (8-ounce) cans crescent dough sheets
  • 1/3 cup whipped chive and onion cream cheese
  • 8 ounces ground breakfast sausage, cooked
  • 4 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat & Prep
    • Preheat the oven to 350°F and grease a 9×13-inch pan with cooking spray.
  2. Make the Eggs
    • In a bowl, whisk together eggs, bell pepper, milk, and black pepper.
    • Scramble the eggs in a skillet over medium heat. Let them cool slightly.
  3. Assemble the Rolls
    • Unroll the crescent dough sheets. Pinch the long edges together to form one large rectangle.
    • Spread the whipped cream cheese evenly over the dough.
    • Layer the scrambled eggs, cooked sausage, crumbled bacon, and shredded cheese on top.
  4. Roll & Slice
    • Tightly roll up the dough from the long side to create one large log.
    • Use a serrated knife to slice into 12 equal pieces.
  5. Bake to Perfection
    • Arrange the rolls in the prepared baking pan.
    • Bake for 24-26 minutes, or until the tops turn golden brown.
  6. Serve & Enjoy
    • Serve warm on their own or pair with fruit for a balanced breakfast!

 


Notes

  • Dough Alternatives: Use pizza dough or thawed bread dough if crescent sheets aren’t available.
  • Flavor Boost: Try flavored cream cheese like garlic & herb or roasted red pepper.
  • Veggie Add-Ins: Sautéed onions, mushrooms, or spinach make a great addition.
  • Cheese Swap: Try Monterey Jack, Colby Jack, or Pepper Jack for a twist!
