Crescent Bacon Breakfast Ring
"I got this recipe off the internet a while back--my family loves it. When I make it for guests, they are literally blown away. You can change up the cheese (Pepper Jack) type or types of peppers (I add jalapenos), I even add a different sauce in the center--sometimes taco sauce, sometimes guacamole, sometimes sour cream--be creative."

ingredients
- 1 (12 ounce) can Pillsbury Refrigerated Crescent Dinner Rolls (large)
- 8 slices bacon (cooked, but still pliable)
- 1⁄2 cup red bell pepper (chopped)
- 1⁄2 cup green bell pepper (chopped)
- 5 extra large eggs
- 1 cup cheddar cheese (Shredded)
- 1 egg (for egg wash)
- 1⁄4 teaspoon salt and pepper (to taste)
directions
- Preheat over to 375°F.
- In a bowl, beat the eggs and add the chopped peppers. Cook the eggs in a skillet (scramble) until set but still slightly undercooked.
- Layout the crescent rolls on a sheet of parchment paper, in a "star" pattern. The short flat ends in the center, overlapping, and the pointed ends radiating out.
- On each crescent star point, lay a piece of the cooked bacon. If the bacon is crispy it will not fold over, so do not overcook the bacon.
- Sprinkle on 1/2 of the cheese in a circle around the center formed by the crescent roll ends overlapping. Then distribute the scramble egg mixture on top of the cheese. Then top with the remaining cheese.
- Fold the pointed ends toward the middle and press the tips together.
- In a small bowl, whisk the remaining egg with a little water. Brush the egg wash over the crescent rolls.
- Bake for about 20 minutes or until the crescents are cooked and golden brown.
- Spoon your favorite condiment in the center.

You can really anything you like to this. I used Irish cheeses (the recipe is almost exactly to this), chopped jalapeños and habaneros. Great brunch. Everyone wanted the recipe. I used crumbled crispy bacon, this was you can spread it all over. A keeper for sure. Mine took about 28 minutes to bake. -

I love to hunt, fish, camp, hike and, of course--cook. I collect cook books and recipes from all kinds of sources. I was so glad to find this web site to help me organize my favorite recipes, and find new ones. My favorite cooking style is BBQ/Smoking. I also love to cook elaborate meals for family and friends. Having lived overseas for many years, I've picked up a lot of recipes for German, French, Italian, Thai, and Greek dishes.</p>
