How to Make Roly Poly Breakfast Balls Great For Kids

  1. Brown 1 pound of sausage in a large skillet over medium heat until thoroughly cooked, breaking it up with a spoon.
  2. Drain the cooked sausage on paper towels to remove excess grease.
  3. Unroll one package (8 count) of crescent roll dough onto a clean work surface.
  4. Place 1 tablespoon of cooked sausage and 1 tablespoon of shredded cheddar cheese into the center of each crescent roll triangle.
  5. Gently bring the points of the triangle together to form a ball, pinching the edges to seal.
  6. Place the breakfast balls onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  7. Bake at the temperature specified on the crescent roll package (usually 375°F) for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
  8. (Optional) Get creative with decorating! Use small pieces of fruit (like blueberries for eyes) or vegetables (like sliced bell peppers for mouths) to create fun faces.
  9. (Optional) For bacon bow ties: Fold two small bacon pieces in half to make a bow shape. Microwave on high for 15-20 seconds or until crisp. Gently attach to the breakfast balls.
