Chorizo & Egg Breakfast Ring

TOTAL TIME: Prep: 25 min. Bake: 15 min. YIELD: 8 servings.
People go crazy when I bring this loaded crescent ring to parties. I can bake it at home and take it anywhere. Of course, everyone's happy when we have it for dinner, too! —Frances Blackwelder, Grand Junction, Colorado

Ingredients

  • 2 tubes (8 ounces each) refrigerated crescent rolls
  • 1/2 pound uncooked chorizo, casings removed, or bulk spicy pork sausage
  • 8 large eggs
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 cup shredded pepper jack cheese
  • 1 cup salsa

Directions

  • 1. Preheat oven to 375°. Unroll crescent dough and separate into triangles. On an ungreased 12-in. pizza pan, arrange triangles in a ring with points toward the outside and wide ends overlapping. Press overlapping dough to seal.
  • 2. In a large skillet, cook chorizo over medium heat 6-8 minutes or until cooked through, breaking into crumbles. Remove with a slotted spoon; drain on paper towels. Discard drippings, wiping skillet clean.
  • 3. In a small bowl, whisk eggs, salt and pepper until blended. In same skillet, heat butter over medium heat. Pour in egg mixture; cook and stir until eggs are thickened and no liquid egg remains.
  • 4. Spoon egg mixture, chorizo and cheese across wide end of triangles. Fold pointed end of triangles over filling, tucking points under to form a ring (filling will be visible).
  • 5. Bake 15-20 minutes or until golden brown. Serve with salsa.
