Description

A cheesy blend of sausage and eggs are baked between layers of store-bought crescent roll dough in this make-ahead breakfast casserole.

Ingredients

1 pound bulk pork sausage
6 eggs
2 cups milk
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground mustard
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
2 (8 ounce) packages refrigerated crescent rolls

Directions

1 Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and stir in sausage. Cook and stir until sausage is crumbly, evenly browned, and no longer pink, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain and discard any excess grease.
2 Beat eggs, milk, salt and ground mustard in a large bowl.
3 Stir Cheddar cheese and sausage into the egg mixture.
4 Roll out crescent roll dough and place one sheet on the bottom of a large baking dish.
5 Pour egg mixture into baking dish; place the second sheet of crescent roll dough on top.
6 Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 8 hours or overnight. Allow casserole to come to room temperature for 30 minutes before baking; remove plastic.
7 Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
8 Bake in the preheated oven until egg is set and a knife inserted near the center comes out clean, about 40 minutes.
