This is one of my family’s favorite breakfast dishes. Packed with two kinds of meat and plenty of veggies, it's so satisfying—and it always garners raves when I serve it. —Marty Schwartz, Sarasota, Florida

Ingredients

1 tube (8 ounces) refrigerated crescent rolls
1/2 pound bacon strips, chopped
1/2 pound bulk pork sausage
1/2 pound sliced fresh mushrooms
1 small onion, finely chopped
1 small green pepper, finely chopped
1 tablespoon butter
8 large eggs, lightly beaten
3 ounces cream cheese, softened
1/3 cup sour cream
1 garlic clove, minced
1/4 teaspoon Italian seasoning
2 plum tomatoes, chopped
1-1/2 cups shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
Picante sauce and additional sour cream, optional

Directions

Unroll crescent dough into a greased 13x9-in. baking dish; seal seams and perforations. Bake at 375° for 6-8 minutes or until golden brown.
Meanwhile, in a small skillet, cook bacon and sausage over medium heat until bacon is crisp and sausage is no longer pink. Using a slotted spoon, remove meat to paper towels; drain, reserving 2 tablespoons drippings. In the drippings, saute the mushrooms, onion and green pepper. Remove and set aside.
Heat butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add eggs; cook and stir until almost set.
In a small bowl, beat the cream cheese, sour cream, garlic and Italian seasoning; spread over crust. Layer with eggs, bacon and sausage, sauteed vegetables, tomatoes and mozzarella.
Bake at 375° for 15-18 minutes or until cheese is melted. Serve with picante sauce and additional sour cream if desired.

Yum! This was really good. I used all pork sausage and left off the tomato and it was perfect for my family. The sour cream was a nice addition at the end.

I love this recipe! U can put any meats/vegetables u like. I love it b/c of the cream cheese/sour cream mixture. Other breakfast pizza recipes seemed to be missing something, and for me that was it. Yummy!
