Sausage & Cheese Crescents

Try these delicious little crescents out for a great addition to any breakfast meal - they're so much better than just plain buttered toast!

Meal: Breakfast
Dish Type: Side
Serves: 2-4
Start-To-Table Prep Time: About 20-25 minutes

Ingredients:
1 roll of 8 crescents
1/4 pound ground breakfast sausage
1/3 cup (give or take) of your favorite type of shredded cheese (try cheddar, colby jack, or mozzarella!)

Process:

  • Preheat oven to temperature specified on crescent package.
  • Break up ground sausage in a pan over medium heat. Stir in pan until sausage is browned; remove from heat.
  • Remove crescents from package and unroll them onto a large baking sheet.
  • At the wide end of each crescent, place a small amount of the sausage and cheese together. Be careful that you don't put too much (else they won't roll up!) but otherwise the amount is to your taste.
  • Carefully roll up the crescents around the sausage and cheese filling; bake for the amount of time specified on the crescent package.
  • Crescents are done when they start to turn golden brown. Remove them from the oven and let stand for a minute or two before enjoying!
For a variation, try cooking up small breakfast sausage links and rolling the crescents around those instead - you'll have a breakfast version of pigs in a blanket!
