Mexican Breakfast Braid
- 1 can Pillsbury Seamless Crescent Roll Dough (8 Ounce Can)
- 10 ounces, weight Chorizo Sausage
- 5 whole Large Eggs, Beaten
- Salt And Pepper, to taste
- 1-1/2 cup Shredded Mexican Cheese
- 2 whole Jalapenos Diced
- 4 Tablespoons Red Bell Pepper, Diced
- Sour Cream, Optional For Garnish
- Preheat oven to 375 F. On your work surface, lay out dough to begin to bring to room temperature while you fry up your sausage.
- Put your chorizo into a skillet over medium heat. Chop it up with your spatula as you cook your chorizo, then drain off the grease. Remove the chorizo from the skillet to a paper towel.
- Using the same skillet, scramble 5 eggs with salt and pepper. Stir and cook the eggs until cooked to your liking. Remove pan from heat.
- Spread dough out on a cookie sheet or baking stone and cut diagonal strips up each side, leaving the center 4 inches untouched. Sprinkle about half of the cheese down the center of the dough, followed by eggs, chorizo, one or both peppers, and more cheese.
- Taking the cut strips of dough, gently stretch, fold and criss-cross them across the center, going down the entire length of dough and tucking in as you go.
- Bake for 15 minutes then serve hot with sour cream garnish.
