For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding diced bell peppers or onions to the sausage while cooking. To prevent the crescent roll crust from browning too quickly, tent the casserole with foil during the last 10 minutes of baking. This casserole can be assembled ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator overnight. Add 5-10 minutes to the baking time if baking from cold. Feel free to experiment with different cheeses, such as Monterey Jack or Gruyere, for a unique flavor profile. For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the sausage mixture.

Follow The Directions
01
Step
2 mins
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). (5 minutes)
02
Step
7 mins
Cook sausage in a skillet over medium heat until browned and crumbly, approximately 5 to 7 minutes; drain off any excess grease. Add Neufchatel cheese; cook and stir until well combined, ensuring a smooth and creamy consistency. Remove from heat and set aside. (10 minutes)
03
Step
5 mins
Unroll crescent rolls and carefully place half of the rolls into an 8x8-inch glass baking dish, pressing the seams together to create a seamless bottom crust. (5 minutes)
04
Step
25 mins
Spread the sausage-Neufchatel cheese mixture evenly over the crescent roll base. Sprinkle generously with shredded Cheddar cheese. Top with the remaining crescent rolls, ensuring they cover the filling completely. (5 minutes)
05
StepBake in the preheated oven until the casserole is golden brown and the filling is set, approximately 20 to 25 minutes. (25 minutes)
06
StepRemove from the oven and let cool for 10 minutes before cutting into 8 squares. This allows the filling to set and prevents the casserole from falling apart. (10 minutes)
