Cream cheese and sausage crescent roll-ups

This recipe is a twist on a Pinterest post I saw but changed it up a lil to suite what I had in the fridge and what meal I was cooking for, brunch. It is very simply but turned out to be extremely tasty. Hope you enjoy :-)





Ingredients:

1 pack of crescent rolls
1 roll of ground breakfast sausage 
1 box of softened low-fat cream cheese (I always use low-fat cream cheese)

Preheat oven according to crescent roll directions. Meanwhile, cook sausage in large skillet over med-high heat breaking it up fairly small. Once cooked thoroughly drain then return to pan and turn down to low. Add cream cheese and mix and mash together until all cream cheese is mixed in then turn off pan. Roll crescent rolls out on large cutting board, mash seams to make 1 big piece. Cream cheese/sausage mixture will still be a bit warm but that's ok. Spread mixture evenly over the crescent dough. Cut mixture in half to make 2 pieces that should be close to square in shape. Roll to make a spiral of yummy goodness. The dough will be really soft and pliable. Cut the rolls like you would to make cinnamon rolls, they will no keep their form and will be a lil messy. Place in a sprayed baking dish, I used a round cake pan that I use to make biscuits or cinnamon rolls. Place in preaheated oven and bake until golden brown and crescent dough in center is cooked, I would guesstimate close to 15 minutes. Let cool then enjoy, simple but yummy!!
