Ingredients
- 1 can of crescent rolls
- 6 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or a mix)
- 1/2 cup cooked sausage or bacon (optional)
- 1/4 cup chopped onions (optional)
- 1/4 cup bell peppers, chopped (optional)
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 1/4 tsp garlic powder (optional)
- 1/4 tsp onion powder (optional)
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it’s hot and ready for the casserole.
Step 2: Prepare the Crescent Rolls
Unroll the crescent rolls and lay them in the bottom of a greased 9×13-inch baking dish. Press them down slightly to form an even layer. Pinch together the seams of the rolls to make one solid base.
Step 3: Cook the Meat (if using)
If you’re adding sausage or bacon, cook it in a skillet over medium heat until fully cooked. Once done, drain any excess fat and set it aside.
Step 4: Whisk the Egg Mixture
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Beat until smooth.
Step 5: Assemble the Casserole
Spread the cooked sausage (or bacon), chopped vegetables, and shredded cheese evenly over the crescent rolls. Pour the egg mixture over the top, ensuring everything is covered. Use a spoon to press down gently to make sure the egg mixture soaks in.
Step 6: Bake the Casserole
Place the casserole in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the eggs are fully set and the top is golden brown. You can check for doneness by inserting a knife into the center—if it comes out clean, the casserole is ready.
Step 7: Let It Cool
Allow the casserole to cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This helps the casserole set and makes it easier to cut into perfect squares.
