Country Sausage & Egg Rolls Oven Recipe

Country Sausage & Egg Rolls Oven Recipe



Ingredients needed:

* 1 lb. bulk pork sausage
* 1 cup of chopped sweet onion
* 1 garlic clove, minced
* 1/2 teaspoon of pepper, divided
* 1 tablespoon of butter
* 8 eggs
* 3 tablespoons of whole milk
* 1/4 teaspoon of salt
* 3/4 cup of shredded sharp cheddar cheese
* 3 green onions, chopped
* 15 sheets of phyllo dough
* 1/3 cup butter, melted

Preparation steps:

* In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the sausage, sweet onion, garlic and 1/4 teaspoon of pepper until meat is no longer pink; drain. Remove and keep warm.
* In the same skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat. Whisk the eggs, milk, salt and remaining pepper; add to skillet. Cook and stir until almost set. Stir in the cheese, green onions and sausage mixture. Remove from the heat.
* Place one sheet of phyllo dough on a work surface; brush with melted butter. Layer with four more phyllo sheets, brushing with butter after each layer. (Keep remaining phyllo covered with plastic wrap and damp towel to prevent it from drying out.) Repeat, making three stacks.
* Cut each stack in half widthwide and in half crosswise, forming four 7-in. x 4 1/2 in. rectangles. Spoon 1/4 cup egg mixture along a long side of each rectangle; roll up.
* Place seam side down on an ungreased baking sheet. With a sharp knife, make four shallow slashes across each roll; brush with butter.
* Bake at 350 degrees for 35 minutes or until golden brown.
