Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 package crescent roll dough one standard can
  • 2 links cooked sausage crumbled (use fully cooked links for speed)
  • 2 large eggs scrambled
  • 1 cup shredded cheese optional; cheddar or Monterey Jack work well

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
  2. Unroll the crescent dough onto the prepared sheet. Gently press the seams together to make one continuous sheet.
  3. In a skillet over medium heat, warm and crumble the cooked sausage until heated through and lightly browned. Transfer to a bowl.
  4. In the same skillet, scramble the eggs until they are just set. Remove from heat promptly to avoid overcooking; they will finish cooking slightly from residual heat.
  5. Combine the scrambled eggs and crumbled sausage in the bowl. Stir in shredded cheese if using.
  6. Spoon the mixture in a line along the wide end of the crescent dough, leaving about 1/2 inch clear at the edges so you can seal.
  7. Roll the dough from the wide end toward the narrow end, tucking and sealing the edge underneath the roll so it doesn’t unroll while baking.
  8. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, until the dough is puffed and golden brown. Let cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

For a dairy-free version, omit the cheese or use a plant-based shredded cheese. Store cooled leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days. To reheat, place on a baking sheet at 350°F (175°C) for 8–10 minutes or microwave individual pieces for 30–60 seconds. For freezing, wrap individual roll-ups tightly in plastic wrap and foil, and freeze for up to 2 months.
