Heat a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add crumbled sausage to the skillet and season with kosher salt and black pepper. Cook for about 7 minutes or until the sausage is no longer pink.
Afterwards, cook the diced red pepper until it becomes tender for approximately 2 to 3 minutes. Then, mix in the cream cheese and stir until everything is well combined. Finally, set the stove top to low.
Afterward, get your baking sheet ready by covering it with either parchment paper or a silicone mat.
Begin by opening one of the tubes of crescent rolls and separating the dough into 4 rectangles. Use your fingers to seal any perforations. Then, gently press out the crescent roll dough into a rectangle that measures 6x4 and is 1/2 inch thick.
Afterward, switch off the stove and proceed to transfer the sausage filling into a measuring cup and spread it onto a rectangle, using a spoon. Be cautious not to spread it beyond the edge, leaving a 1/4 inch space.
Begin rolling up the dough in a jelly roll style, ensuring that the seam is pinched to seal and placed facing downwards. Repeat this step until all the crescent roll dough has been used.
Freeze the sausage roll logs for one hour.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Cut the log into 8 to 10 slices, taking into account the desired thickness, and then place them on baking sheets that have been prepared.
Bake in the oven for 15 to 18 minutes until they turn golden brown.
Take out of the oven and serve immediately, while still warm. Accompany with chopped green onions and diced tomatoes.
Notes
Season Cream Cheese: Take your cheese cream crescent roll by seasoning your cream cheese filling. You can mix in your favorite spices or seasonings such as taco seasoning, garlic powder, or dried herbs.
Make Spicy: If you're looking for an extra bit of heat, you can incorporate chopped jalapenos into the cream cheese filling.
Seal Crescent: You want to make sure you are properly sealing your crescent rolls, that way no filling falls out while baking. Press the edges of the dough firmly together and ensure no filling it falling out.
