My Mother, Nancy, has made this dish for as long as I can remember around the holidays or a birthday,some of the work can be done in advance-this makes a pretty presentation and is very flavorful. Hope you enjoy. Ingredients:
2 (8 ounce) cans refrigerated crescent dinner rolls, preferably pillsbury |
2 lbs regular pork sausage (or 1 pound regular or hot pork sausage and one pound bacon, cut in inch pieces, this is the combo we) or 2 lbs hot pork sausage (or 1 pound regular or hot pork sausage and one pound bacon, cut in inch pieces, this is the combo we) |
4 cups monterey jack cheese, grated |
8 eggs |
1 2/3 cups half-and-half cream |
1 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon pepper |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
2. Spray a 15x10x1-inch pan with cooking spray and line it with the crescent roll dough (Usually the four rectangular pieces of dough contained in the 2 packages fit nicely in the pan (side by side)-if not you can manipulate the dough to make it fit-pinch seams together if necessary.
3. Brown sausage; drain well and crumble over crust.
4. If using bacon-either fry to desired doneness or microwave it and cut into one inch pieces.
