Savory Sausage Breakfast Rolls

Ingredients

• 1 (11-ounce) can refrigerated French bread dough
• 2 tablespoons butter, melted
• 2 teaspoons chopped fresh sage
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 8 ounces reduced-fat pork sausage, cooked and crumbled (such as Jimmy Dean)
• 3/4 cup (3 ounces) shredded Gruyère cheese
• Cooking spray

Preparation

1. 1. Preheat oven to 350°.
2. 2. Find lengthwise seam in dough. Beginning at seam, gently unroll dough into a rectangle on a lightly floured surface. Roll dough into a 13 x 8-inch rectangle; brush with butter, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Combine sage, salt, and sausage. Sprinkle sausage mixture evenly over dough, leaving a 1/2-inch border; top with cheese. Starting with a long side, roll dough up, jelly-roll fashion; press seam to seal (do not seal ends of roll). Cut 1 (1/2-inch-thick) crosswise slice from each end; discard. Slice roll crosswise into 12 (1/2-inch-thick) pieces; arrange in a 13 x 9-inch baking dish coated with cooking spray. Bake at 350° for 28 minutes or until golden.
