Ingredients:
1 lb breakfast sausage, cooked and crumbled
1 (8 oz) block cream cheese, softened
1 (10 oz) can Rotel diced tomatoes and green chilies, drained well
2 (8 oz) cans refrigerated crescent rolls
Directions:
1. Prepare the Filling:
Cook and crumble the breakfast sausage in a skillet until browned. Drain any excess grease.
In a large bowl, combine the sausage, softened cream cheese, and well-drained Rotel diced tomatoes and green chilies. Stir until the mixture is evenly blended and creamy.
2. Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it to prevent sticking.
3. Assemble the Crescents:
Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into individual triangles.
Add a spoonful of the sausage and cream cheese mixture to the wide end of each triangle.
Roll the crescent dough tightly over the filling, starting from the wide end and tucking in the edges to fully enclose the filling.
4. Bake to Perfection:
Arrange the filled crescents on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them evenly apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the crescents turn golden brown and flaky.
5. Serve and Enjoy:
Let the crescents cool for a few minutes before serving. These buttery, savory bites are perfect as appetizers, snacks, or a hearty breakfast option.
Pro Tip: Pair these delicious crescents with a side of ranch dressing or spicy dipping sauce for added flavor!
