For a spicier twist, try using hot sausage or adding a pinch of crushed red pepper flakes to the sausage mixture. You can also experiment with different cheeses, such as pepper jack or mozzarella, to add your own flair. If you prefer, you can replace the crescent roll dough with puff pastry for a flakier texture. And for a delightful brunch variation, consider adding some finely chopped bell peppers or green onions to the filling for an extra burst of flavor.
