Rotel Sausage & Cream Cheese Crescents Simple Snack

Ingredients

• 1 pound breakfast sausage (bulk, without casings)
• 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
• 10 ounces diced tomatoes and green chilies (like Rotel), drained
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1 tsp onion powder
• 8 ounces refrigerated crescent roll dough
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 Prise Fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)
• 1 Prise Hot sauce for serving (optional)

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the breakfast sausage until browned and fully cooked, breaking it into small pieces as it cooks. Drain any excess fat.
3. In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked sausage, softened cream cheese, drained tomatoes and green chilies, garlic powder, and onion powder. Stir until everything is well mixed and creamy.
4. Unroll the crescent roll dough onto a clean, lightly floured surface. Separate the dough into triangles as indicated on the package.
5. Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the sausage and cream cheese mixture onto the wide end of each crescent triangle. Sprinkle a little shredded cheddar cheese on top of the mixture.
6. Starting from the wide end, carefully roll the triangle over the filling to form a crescent shape. Press the edges to seal them tightly.
7. Place the filled crescent rolls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, making sure they are spaced about 2 inches apart.
8. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the crescents are golden brown and puffed up.
9. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Garnish with chopped cilantro and serve warm with optional hot sauce for an extra kick.
