Sausage Casserole in a Skillet

In our little home, I have a child who adores sausage. Almost more than bacon. When I'm at the store, he knows when momma is making his favorite, sausage casserole.

This recipe is very delicious, easy, and cheap to cook. My daughter's school even asked me if I could make sausage casserole for the principal's birthday celebration at school! Yes, I do show up with cast iron at my daughter's school.

Here's the recipe:

Sausage Casserole:

• 2 containers Pillsbury crescent rolls
• 1 pound sausage (mild sage)
• 1 block cream cheese (sliced)
• salt and pepper to taste
• 1/2 cup cheddar cheese

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

In a 10 inch cast iron skillet, brown sausage. When the sausage is fully cooked, add slices of cream cheese and stir in until the cheese has fully melted. Turn heat off and place aside. With a six-inch cast iron skillet, oil down the surface and sides. Roll out crescent rolls and cover the surface with strips of dough. Pour sausage mixture on top of the crescent rolls. Slice the long side of crescent roll dough and make a pie-shaped crisscross pattern, or lay triangles on top of the sausage mix. Tucking in the sides of the crescent rolls. Cook at 350 degrees, until golden brown. Take sausage casserole out of the oven and sprinkle with cheese. Serve while hot.
