Open-Faced Crescent Sandwiches

Your whole family will enjoy these and everyone will be happy! This is just a springboard recipe – add + change as you will; have fun with it. Goes great alongside my Poppy Seed Noodles for dinner or serve for breakfast with eggs on the side.

1 lb. ground turkey, chicken, or pork sausage
2 tsp. minced garlic
1/4 cup minced, roasted red peppers or pimentos
2 cansĀ  refrigerated crescent roll dough
About 1/2 cup of pizza sauce
About 1 cup shredded cheese (I used the bag of Mexican mixed)

Preheat your oven to 375 degrees and grease 2 cookie sheets. Prepare your oven racks so that 2 cookie sheet can cook at one time; In a large skillet, cook the sausage, garlic and peppers; drain and set aside.

Unroll the doughs onto the cookie sheets and separate them into 4 rectangles each, pressing onto the perforations to seal. SpreadĀ  some sauce on on each, sprinkle the cheese over the sauce then spread some cooked sausage on top. With the back of a large spoon or your hands, gently press the mixture onto the top of each “sandwich” and place in the oven.

Bake for about 9 minutes, alternate pans and cook for about 9 minutes more or until a deep golden brown. Remove from the cookie sheets and dig in.
