Ingredients:
1 pound bulk sausage – cooked and crumbled (choose spicy, mild, or flavored sausage for added variety).
1 tube (8 ounces) refrigerated crescent rolls – available at most grocery stores.
2 cups shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese – or your favorite cheese blend for a richer taste.
Instructions:
Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
Cook the sausage: In a skillet, cook the sausage over medium heat until browned and fully cooked. Drain any excess grease and set aside.
Prepare the crescent rolls: Unroll the crescent dough and separate it into triangles. Arrange them in your prepared baking dish to create a base layer. Pinch seams together if needed.
Layer the filling: Spread the cooked sausage evenly over the dough. Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese generously over the sausage layer.
Top with crescent dough: Use another layer of crescent dough (optional) to fully cover the filling or create decorative patterns.
Bake: Place the dish in the oven and bake for 15–20 minutes, or until the crescent rolls are golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.
Cool and serve: Let the dish cool slightly before cutting into squares or servings. Serve warm for the best taste.
