Sausage Crescent Breakfast Casserole


I mean, who doesn’t love a breakfast casserole?  I’m pretty much obsessed with them.
I actually made this casserole on a busy weeknight for dinner and not for breakfast.  I found this recipe in my Quick and Easy Autumn Cookbook and it was both quick and easy (and really yummy!).  The recipe calls for one pound of pork sausage but we substituted chicken sausage instead.  You make it how your family will love it.  I also made this casserole early in the morning and popped it in the fridge until suppertime…you could do the same thing for overnight as well and have it for breakfast.  Easy!
The recipe calls for one can of Crescent Rolls smoothed out over the bottom of a 13×9 pan…but if you can find these Crescent Seamless Dough Sheet at your store, it will simplify the process even more.  Look for this right there next to the basic Crescent Rolls.  If you can’t find it, no worries, just place all of your Crescent Roll triangles across the bottom of your baking dish until it’s completely covered.

 

Shopping List
1 can of Crescent Rolls (or the seamless dough sheet)
1 pound pork sausage (or whatever sausage your family loves)
6 eggs
1/2 cup milk
good pinch of Salt & Pepper
1 1/2 cups of Cheddar cheese, shredded
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
Spread your Crescent Roll dough across the bottom of a greased (I use Pam) 13×9 baking dish.  Set aside.
Brown your sausage in a skillet until crumbly and cooked.
Meanwhile, whisk your eggs in a small bowl with milk and S&P.  Once your sausage is browned, spread it out over your crescent rolls in the pan.  Pour your egg mixture on top of the sausage and sprinkle cheese on top of that.
At this point, you can cover and refrigerate until you’re ready to cook it the next morning or you can go ahead and pop it in the oven for 25 to 30 minutes.  The edges will be brown and the center not wobbly when it’s done.
That’s it!  This little casserole was so simple and so yummy!  We just loved it!

    I'm thinking this is dinner tonight!! HAHA! I was just sitting here trying to figure out what I'm going to make…you made the decision for me 🙂 I have never seen chicken sausage that you use. I have recently found these Jimmy Dean sausage crumbles; they are fully cooked & I always get the turkey one. Very yummy & EASY!!! Thank you for all your yummy recipes!!!

    Your local grocery store must have a great selection. I have to drive 40 minutes for chicken sausage. :/ I go once a month and stock up though!

    I make a sausage casserole that is almost identical to this, except I use bread in bottom, let it soak overnight, and then mix a can of cream of mushroom soup and a 1/4 can of milk, and pour over top of cheese before cooking…OMGawd…it's delightful!!

    My mom makes this! She got the recipe from a church event 20 years ago, and we make it every Christmas and Easter morning. The smell of this casserole means holiday!! Our recipe includes finely chopped green pepper and a sprinkle of salt, pepper, and oregano.

    Made this on Christmas Eve, and refrigerated overnight for Christmas morning. Perfection. Really, this is all I've ever wanted in a sausage and egg casserole!! Leftovers are delicious too. Thank you!

    I happened to find your page through another blogger and I made this recipe tonight for the next few days to create a fast breakfast I need in the mornings. It's simple fast and pure delish!! We love it. Thanks for sharing!

    I've mixed the bread version up the night before and a baked it the next morning but never with the crescent dough. Does it affect the crescent dougn to prepare the night before and bake it the next morning?
