Instructions

Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Prepare Filling: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cooked sausage, softened cream cheese, drained tomatoes with chilies, and chopped parsley. Mix thoroughly until well combined. If using, fold in cheddar cheese, garlic powder, and hot sauce.
Assemble Rolls: Unroll the crescent dough and separate into triangles. Cut each triangle in half lengthwise to create smaller triangles. Place a spoonful of the sausage mixture onto the wide end of each triangle and roll up towards the point.
Bake: Arrange the rolls on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 15 minutes, or until golden brown.
Serve: Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.

Notes

Drain Tomatoes Well: Ensure the canned tomatoes are well drained to prevent soggy rolls.
Make Ahead: The sausage filling can be prepared up to 3 days in advance and stored in the refrigerator.
Serving Suggestions: These rolls pair well with scrambled eggs and fruit for breakfast, or with a fresh green salad for lunch
