Ingredients
For the Filling:
- 1 pound mild breakfast sausage cooked and crumbled
- 6 ounces cream cheese softened
- 10 ounces can fire-roasted diced tomatoes and green chilies well-drained
- 1 teaspoon fresh parsley finely chopped
For the Pastry:
- 16 ounces refrigerated crescent roll dough 2 cans, 8 ounces each
Optional Additions:
- ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- Hot sauce to taste
Instructions
- Heat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment or a silicone mat.
- Combine sausage, cream cheese, drained tomatoes with chilies, and parsley in a bowl. Mix until smooth. Stir in any optional add-ins.
- Unroll crescent dough on a floured surface. Separate triangles. For bite-size rolls, cut each triangle in half lengthwise.
- Spoon 1 tablespoon of filling onto the wide end of each triangle. Adjust as needed—don’t overfill.
- Roll dough from the wide end to the point, enclosing the filling. Pinch the ends to seal.
- Arrange crescents 2 inches apart on the sheet. Repeat with remaining dough and bake for 15 minutes or until golden and puffed.
- Cool for 3–5 minutes. Serve warm and enjoy!
