Breakfast Ring


I love this breakfast idea.  It is not only attractive, but it tastes great and you can literally fill the ring with whatever breakfast goodies you want. 

Breakfast Ring

4 to 5 slices of bacon (partially cooked, but not crispy)
3 additional slices of bacon, diced into small pieces and fried crispy
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup shredded mild Colby cheese
3 eggs beaten with 2 Tbsp. milk (optional)
1 Tbsp. salsa (optional)
1 roll of refrigerated Crescent Rolls

Spray a large cookie sheet with cooking spray: (I use a stone because it bakes more evenly).  Open the Crescent rolls and lay them in a large circle with the wide end toward the center and overlapping each other about 1/2 inch.  Press the corners together. 

In a separate pan, scramble the 3 eggs + 2 Tbsp. milk together until completely done.  Let cool.

Cut the 4 slices of bacon in half and cook until they are starting to get done, but not crispy.  They will finish cooking in the oven.  Remove and drain on a paper towel.  Place each 1/2 slice on a crescent roll running from the wide part out to the tip. 

Around the center of the ring (wide ends), sprinkle the mozzarella cheese, cooled scrambled eggs and then the Colby cheese.  Sprinkle the salsa on top of the cheese. 

Pull each corner of the crescent rolls up and slightly the left, tucking them under the center of the circle.  Do this for each one until you have formed a complete circle as seen above.

Bake in a 350 degree oven for approximately 12 to 15 minutes or until crescent rolls are browning on top.  Remove from oven, brush lightly with butter and sprinkle with the crumbled bacon pieces.

Serve hot.  The cheese makes this gooey and the bacon and eggs make it a perfect breakfast combination!  Try it, you'll love it! 

My husband doesn't like eggs, so sometimes I leave the eggs out and use Turkey Bacon as an alternative.
