How to Make Breakfast Sausage Bread

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
  3. Layer 1: Unroll one (8 oz) tube of crescent roll dough and line the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
  4. Layer 2: In a skillet, brown 1 lb breakfast sausage. Drain well and crumble it on top of the crescent roll layer.
  5. Layer 3: Drain 16 oz cottage cheese very well. In a bowl, combine the drained cottage cheese with 2 large eggs, 1 tsp garlic salt, 1 tsp onion powder, and 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese.
  6. Spread the cottage cheese mixture evenly over the sausage.
  7. Layer 4: Sprinkle 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese over the cottage cheese layer.
  8. Layer 5: Top with the remaining crescent roll dough, pressing the edges to seal slightly.
  9. Bake for 45-55 minutes, or until golden brown and the casserole is heated through. Let cool slightly before serving.
