I've made this braid several times, and everyone really loves it!

Loved this recipe! It is truly the best brunch braid I've ever tasted. I modified the recipe to include scrambled eggs. I used only 6 oz. pork sausage and substituted the celery with 1/4 c. chopped mushrooms. After cooking sausage and vegetables, I pushed to one side of pan and added egg mixture (mix 4 eggs, 1/4 c. milk, A dash or aprox. 1/4 tsp. of hot chili sauce, 1 tsp. dried parsley instead of fresh parsley, 2 T. chopped green onion, salt & pepper to taste) I then added-- 2 oz. of cream cheese, cubed to pan. Allow egg mixture to partially set and then stir together with sausage and vegetables. Fantastic flavor and easy to make. My teenage son loved this and even asked for seconds.

Pillsbury carries uncut Crescent dough sheets it's even easier. Made this for a Women's Brunch-rave reviews! I made it for Easter Brunch, but let the sausage mixture cool before putting on dough, then refrigerated prepared braid overnight and baked in morning...the family loved it.

I have made this recipe often and always pleased. I have added diced red bell pepper to give it the holiday colors.

Have made this every year for at least 8 years during holidays for friends and family (make them 3 at a time) and every one loves it. It is really quick and easy to make.

This was great. I chopped the vegetables small enough so the kids didn't notice them and it was quickly eaten up. I made another one the next morning. Will definitely continue to make as a weekend favorite.

This was great! I left out the celery which we don't like. The only other thing I will do next time is to make 2. I wonder how it would freeze if it lasted long enough to get it in the freezer.
