Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl
  • Skillet
  • Baking Sheet

Ingredients

  • 6 eggs
  • 1 Tablespoon milk
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • ½ Tablespoon butter
  • 1 cup Pico De Gallo
  • 8 ounces Crescent Roll Dough
  • 6 strips bacon cooked and crumbled
  • ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, and salt and pepper.
  • In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat, then add eggs to the pan. Scramble eggs for about 3 minutes, then add 1 cup of pico de gallo. Continue to scramble eggs until they are set up (about 3 more minutes), then set aside.
  • Open crescent roll dough and unroll as one large rectangle on a baking sheet than is lined with aluminum foil (or a baking mat). Dough should be almost the entire length of a half sheet pan. Press together to even out edges and seal any holes. Cut 1/2 inch diagonal strips up each side of the dough.
  • Spoon eggs down the center of the dough, then top with crumbled bacon and cheddar cheese.
  • Fold 1/2 inch dough pieces up over filling alternating sides to get a braided pattern.
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes until dough is golden brown. Serve warm.
