Ingredients

6 bacon slices
5 eggs, beaten, divided
1/2 red bell pepper, chopped
1/2 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
2 tablespoon parsley, chopped
salt, to taste
pepper, to taste
3 (4-ounce, 4-count) cans refrigerated crescent rolls

Directions

Step 1 -Set the oven temperature to 350 degrees F.

Step 2 -Prepare a large baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper.

Step 3 -Chop the bacon and fry it in a skillet until browned and crisp.

Step 4 -Add 4 of the beaten eggs, the bell peppers, the cheese, and the parsley, while stirring, to scramble the eggs.

Step 5 -Sprinkle the salt and the pepper over the eggs. The eggs don't have to be fully cooked, as they will continue to cook in the oven.

Step 6 -Lay out the cans of the crescent dough and separate them into the 12 perforated triangles.

Step 7 -Arrange the triangles with the short side towards the center of the prepared baking sheet, overlapping into a star shape and covering the middle with leftover triangles. Press down on any overlapping dough to flatten.

Step 8 -Distribute the egg mixture in the center of the dough.

Step 9 -Wrap the egg filling by pulling the points of the triangles over and tucking in the center.

Step 10 -Once you have folded all of the dough in, brush the top with the remaining beaten egg.

Step 11 -Bake until the top has a nice golden-brown color, about 20-25 minutes.

Step 12 -Slice and serve.
