- 1/4 cup milk

- 1/2 tsp onion powder
- Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions
- Prepare the Oven and Pan:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper.
- Layer the Crescent Rolls:
- Unroll the crescent roll dough and press it into the bottom of the prepared baking dish, pinching the seams together to form a single layer.
- Add the Sausage and Cheese:
- Spread the cooked and crumbled sausage evenly over the crescent roll layer. Sprinkle the shredded cheese on top.
- Mix the Egg Mixture:
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
- Pour and Bake:
- Pour the egg mixture evenly over the sausage and cheese.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the crescent roll crust is golden brown.
- Cool and Serve:
- Let the casserole cool for 5 minutes before slicing. Garnish with parsley or chives if desired, and serve warm.
Notes
- Add vegetables like diced bell peppers, onions, or spinach for extra flavor and nutrition.
- Substitute the sausage with cooked bacon or ham for variety.
- Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, and reheat in the oven or microwave before serving.
