  5.0 – 3 reviews  

You can use a package of cinnamon rolls from the refrigerator as dessert after supper. Use fresh or frozen peaches, and you may also, if you like, add a dollop of vanilla ice cream.

Prep Time: 10 mins
Cook Time: 40 mins
Additional Time: 10 mins
Total Time: 1 hr
Servings: 12
Yield: 1 9×13-inch casserole

Ingredients

  1. 1 pound breakfast sausage
  2. 2 cups frozen hash brown potatoes, thawed
  3. 6 large eggs
  4. ½ cup milk
  5. salt and ground black pepper, to taste
  6. 1 (8 ounce) package refrigerated crescent rolls
  7. 2 cups pepper Jack cheese, shredded

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  2. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir sausage in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove sausage to a plate; drain and discard most of the grease from the skillet. Add hash browns and cook until golden brown, 5 to 7 minutes.
  3. Beat eggs, milk, salt, and pepper together in a bowl.
  4. Arrange crescent rolls on the bottom of a 9×13-inch baking dish. Layer with sausage and hash brown potatoes. Pour egg mixture over top and sprinkle with pepper Jack cheese.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean, about 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and let set before serving, about 10 minutes.
  6. You can use spicy sausage and change up the cheese, or replace the sausage with leftover holiday ham. Change it up based on your preference.

Wonderful lol loved I used spicy sausage and added some onions and mozzarella cheese.

Made this morning and it was a big hit with son, DIL, and the two grands! I followed the recipe exactly, except one thing: I used two cups of grated gouda cheese with bacon instead of pepper jack (not a big spicy person). It was the perfect cheese substitute!

Instead of sausage I used bacon and ham. And I did not use the pepper jack cheese because we have some who cannot handle spicy. I used Colby-Jack. I believe it baked a little too long because the crescent roll were tasting overdone. But overall it was a hit with the family. I will make this again.
