So quick and easy to make. A hit with everyone and makes great leftovers. I found this online somewhere years ago. I wanted something that didn't have to sit over night and I don't like the soggy bread in most casseroles. Once I found this, I never looked back. You can spice it up with veggies or whatever you want but below is the basic recipe I found.

Time 45m

Yield 8-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

Ingredients

1 Pillsbury Refrigerated Crescent Dinner Rolls (pillsbury sells sheets of dough now too. They work perfect)
10 -12 eggs (depending on size)
4 cups cheese (shredded, I use colby jack, but originally it called for 2 cups mozz and 2 cups cheddar.)
1 -2 lb pork sausage

Steps:

spray 9x13 baking dish with pam.
preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
roll out 1 can of crescent rolls on bottom of pan.
cook sausage in skillet, drain and spread over crescent rolls in pan.
beat all eggs with a touch of milk.
add 4 cups of cheese to egg mixture - this gets hard to stir, I find a wooden spoon works best.
pour egg/cheese mixture over sausage.
bake in oven uncovered for 30-45 minutes depending on your oven, it can look done and the middle might be runny so check with a toothpick.

If you want a vegetarian casserole, use tofu, tempeh, or black beans instead of meat.
