This is a really easy breakfast idea I made for breakfast this morning. It's like a sausage biscuit but in a crescent roll. Crescent rolls are so versatile and good for so many things. I did use the Big Buttery crescent rolls for this recipe. The crescent rolls that are 50% bigger, but you can use the regular ones also. The bigger ones do hold the filling better. Here is all you will need for these yummy wraps:
Crescent rolls, cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, and sausage. I used the precooked sausage crumbles that Jimmy Dean makes, but you can also crumble and brown a roll of sausage. I felt like I was cheating on my favorite sausage maker...Purnell's, but as far as I know they don't make these crumbles and I had a coupon for them and they were on sale...is that enough excuses. These crumbles are handy for pizza, quiches, breakfast casseroles and such. A good idea is to brown up a couple of rolls of sausage (Purnell's) and let it cool, then put it in Ziploc bags and freeze it just for these type of recipes.
I just softened the cream cheese to spreading consistency by popping it in the microwave for 30 seconds. Spread a thin layer on each crescent roll, sprinkle some of the sausage over each one, and then sprinkle with a little cheddar cheese.
Roll each one up as you would a crescent roll. Place on a cookie sheet or pizza pan that has been sprayed with nonstick spray. Place in a preheated 375 degree oven for 13 -15 minutes or until lightly browned.
You have a delicious breakfast sandwich in less than 30 minutes!
