Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 pound breakfast sausage Cooked and crumbled
  • 1 package (8 ounces) refrigerated crescent roll dough Unrolled
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese For topping

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  2. Lightly grease an 8x8-inch or 9x9-inch baking dish.
  3. Cook the sausage in a skillet over medium heat, breaking it into small crumbles until fully browned. Drain excess grease.
  4. Unroll the crescent dough and press it evenly into the bottom of the prepared baking dish, pinching the seams together.
Assembly
  1. Scatter the cooked sausage evenly over the dough.
  2. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese on top.
Baking
  1. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is melted with brown spots.
  2. Let it rest for 5 minutes before cutting into squares. Serve warm.

Notes

Serve warm with dipping sauces like ranch or hot sauce. Pairs well with a fresh salad or fruit. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for 3 to 4 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
