Ingredients

• 4 eggs
• 2 tablespoons red bell pepper (finely diced)
• 1 tablespoon milk
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 8-ounce cans crescent dough sheets*
• 1/3 cup whipped chive and onion cream cheese
• 8 ounces ground breakfast sausage (cooked)
• 4 slices bacon (cooked and crumbled)
• 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions

2. Step 2: Pour the egg mixture into a lightly greased skillet over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the eggs are scrambled and just set. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
3. Step 3: Unroll the crescent dough sheets and separate them into individual triangles according to package instructions.

5. Step 5: Roll up each triangle starting from the wide end, enclosing the fillings completely. Place the rolls seam side down on an ungreased baking sheet.
6. Step 6: Bake in the preheated oven for 12–15 minutes or until the rolls are golden brown and cooked through.
7. Step 7: Remove from oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your savory breakfast rolls warm!

Tips & Variations

• For a vegetarian version, omit the sausage and bacon, and add sautéed mushrooms or spinach instead.
• Use your favorite type of cheese, such as pepper jack or mozzarella, for a different flavor profile.
• Freeze unbaked rolls on a baking sheet, then transfer to a freezer bag for an easy make-ahead breakfast. Bake directly from frozen, adding a few extra minutes to the baking time.

Storage

Store leftover breakfast rolls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for 8–10 minutes or microwave briefly until warmed through.
