I have a recipe for you! *Collective gasp* I had other posts I wanted to do (such as pictures of the house, or pictures of our "new" puppy), but I promised there'd be a recipe in the next post so I waited.
It was just a little longer than I expected! But we have internet now, a year and a half after we got married, so it should be a little easier now! Good news, too, is that I built up a little buffer of recipes in the meantime so I have at least a few guaranteed posts from here on.
Onto the recipe!
This is kind of my Egg and Sausage Biscuits, part 2. Everything has a sequel nowadays, right?
It's kind of more like a remake, I guess--new and improved! And much, much tastier.
I normally don't have ready-to-bake rolls in my house, since I pretty much only eat them at the holidays. Lo and behold, it was Thanksgiving day that I made these. The rolls of rolls were on sale for 99 cents each (which is just second to free) so I got three...then found out my parents were bringing rolls, too. We had extra! I decided to get creative, and sometimes creativity can be very, very tasty.
Did I mention they were tasty? Easy, too!
Let's get down to it:
Prep time: 5 minutes
Cook time: ~20 minutes
Serves: 8 biscuits
Ingredients:
8-count roll of crescent rolls (any brand)
2 eggs
2 MorningStar Maple Sausage Patties OR Original Sausage Patties
Directions:
1. Spray a small skillet with nonstick spray. Beat your eggs in a bowl and pour into the skillet over medium-low heat.
Scramble until mostly cooked, about 2-3 minutes.
Don't overcook them. They will be cooking again in the oven!
2. Follow the directions to microwave the sausage patties. Chop and add to the eggs.
3. Pop open your roll of crescent rolls. Does anybody else get paranoid if the roll doesn't open on the first try? When will it open? Is it broken? Will it be loud? When?!
Ahem.
Separate out a single roll.
Fold it and squish it until it forms a nice uniform ball, and no original seams are visible.
Flatten it out into a little pancake.
Grab a tablespoon of the egg mix.
And stuff it into the pancake you've made.
Pinch the edges shut over the mixture, careful to smooth out any weak spots. I discovered that rolling it again helped a bit.
Rinse and repeat for the other 7 rolls. You may have a little extra filling left over, but I didn't mind. (and neither did Hubby, as he was sampling it.)
4. Line up the finished rolls on a sprayed cookie sheet.
(See that one I didn't close up well enough? It will pop open while cooking. Oops!)
Bake according to the directions on the crescent roll container until the rolls are crispy and a little browned. If they look underdone, just add a couple of minutes!
Here's that one I didn't seal properly post-baking. It still tasted good!
Here's a cross-section of one of the ones that did stay closed.
They were so good. Mmm. Now I kind of want them for lunch.
Enjoy!
Love seeing you back!
