The Scoop

Mornings can be extra busy, but breakfast doesn't have to be.
Mornings can be extra busy, but breakfast doesn’t have to be. These breakfast roll-ups are seriously the best. They wrap fluffy scrambled eggs, melty cheddar cheese, and sausage into a buttery crescent dough for a breakfast that’s easy to grab and easy to love. When a simple granola bar doesn’t do the trick, these will certainly help! 
Hack it:
Use Swiss cheese slices instead of cheddar. Use feta cheese wrapped in rolled ham slices instead of cheddar and sausages for a Mediterranean version of the recipe.
Add veggies: Finely chopped mushrooms, bell peppers, or spinach leaves pair well with these.
Add sundried tomatoes and oregano. You’d be surprised!
Leftovers:
Reheat in the oven, toaster, or air fryer for the best texture.
If you’d like to freeze them, make sure to wrap them well. Future you will be very grateful when breakfast is already done and waiting!
