"This recipe was a big hit at my baby shower brunch! I used croissants instead of the regular bread and increased the cheese & sausage amounts per the other reviews. People couldn't get enough of it!..." See more This will definitely be added to my Christmas breakfast menu as well. Highly recommended"
