Instructions
- Heat oven to 375F (190C), preparing a baking sheet for the breakfast rolls.

- Use the same skillet to scramble eggs until just set and slightly moist.
- Spread out crescent roll dough on the baking sheet, carefully separating each triangle.
- Layer each triangle with scrambled eggs, crumbled sausage, and shredded cheese, distributing ingredients evenly.
- Roll each triangle from the wide end toward the point, creating compact breakfast rolls.

- Experiment with different meats like turkey sausage or bacon to customize protein content and reduce fat.
- Swap crescent roll dough with gluten-free alternatives or use large lettuce wraps for a low-carb version.
- Mix and match cheese varieties like sharp cheddar, pepper jack, or Swiss to create unique flavor profiles that suit your taste preferences.
