6. Crescent Roll Breakfast Pie
Give me a tube of crescent roll dough, and I’ll show you a ton of creative ways to use it.
One of the most brilliant uses, though, is this recipe.

However, there is more than enough room to improvise.

11. Spinach Quiche
Spinach quiche is a healthy powerhouse breakfast to jumpstart the day.
Heavy cream gives it a custard consistency and sauteed shallots give it more depth.
Before adding the frozen spinach, make sure it’s defrosted and drained. That way you don’t water down the quiche.

Great for holidays or celebrations, it’s not too hard to whip up and everyone will swoon over it.
