I received this recipe from a friend, and have only made slight variations. It's a big hit whenever company visits, and for work breakfast potlucks.

SERVES 16 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

2 (8 ounce) cans crescent roll dough (use the regular ones, not the big and fluffy, because they take longer to bake)
1 lb sausage
6 eggs
8 ounces cream cheese
1 1/2 cups cheddar cheese

Directions

1
Layout 1 can of crescent roll dough flat on baking sheet.
2
Bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes.
3
Brown sausage and drain. Mix sausage with cream cheese.
4
Spread mixture over dough.
5
Mix eggs and pour over sausage mixture. Spread cheese over eggs.
6
Layout crescent roll dough flat over cheese.
7
Bake for 25 minutes at 350 degrees.
8
If I don't have sausage on hand, will use hamburger and season with favorite hot sauce. Also, the original recipe calls for 2 cups cheddar cheese and 3 eggs scrambled (cooked). The baking time can then be cut back to 15 minutes, if eggs are already cooked.

I was at a real loss for dinner tonight...so I searched the frig, went on to Zaar and used the recipe sifter. That's how I came upon your recipe. I only had enough ingredients to halve the recipe and it was FABULOUS! I used a smaller Corning Ware pan and put half of the crescents on the bottom, cooked it for a while and then continued with the recipe. I was so surprised by how easy and tasty it was. I, too, semi-scrambled the eggs which worked perfectly. I didn't have any cheddar, so I used American cheese slices. I unwrapped them, tore them into pieces, and placed them over the egg mixture. It tasted great! I used an egg wash on the top layer of crescents, and it looked beautiful! My husband and son asked that I make this again. Thanks for a great recipe! tld

This was rated 5 stars by my hubby's co-workers. I made this for him to take to a potluck breakfast and now they want the recipe. I didn't get to taste it but it was gone quickly according to hubby.

This is a very good, quick breakfast casserole. The crust comes out crispy and it tastes great. The cream cheese adds a nice flavor. I used hot pork sausage instead of regular because we like our food a little spicier. I think you could put just about any add-ins you want instead of sausage: bacon, ham, veggies, etc. We enjoyed this.
