Ingredients

  • Crescent roll dough, full batch (If you do not have the time or inclination to make the homemade dough, you can use canned crescent rolls. You’d probably need 2 or 3 cans.)
  • 1 lb bulk pork sausage, fully cooked and drained
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup sliced green onions (green parts only)
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper

Instructions

  • Prepare and let dough rise fully. Divide into 7 portions.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine fully cooked sausage, cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, green onions, and seasonings. Stir to combine well.
  • Roll out one portion of dough at a time on a floured surface. Roll into a rectangle about 1/4 inch thick. Divide dough into six or eight sections.
  • Place about 1 tablespoon of the sausage mixture into the center of each section of dough. Fold over the dough and trim of extra edges. Seal the seams with a fork. Continue this process with the remaining sections and portions of dough.
  • Bake at 375 degrees for 15-18 minutes, or until lightly browned on top.

Notes

*I baked these fully before freezing. To reheat, do not thaw first. Just place desired number of turnovers on a cookie sheet and bake at 350 degrees until heated through.
