Notes

This casserole can be prepared the night before and kept in the fridge, making it perfect for easy morning baking. Feel free to customize by adding your choice of veggies or proteins. If you want a little kick, consider adding diced jalapeños or using spicy sausage. Leftover casserole can be stored in the refrigerator and reheated well; simply warm in the oven for the best texture. Brushing the crescent rolls with melted butter before baking can give them a delicious sheen and additional flavor.
