Lattice Sausage Pie Recipe



* 8-10 Servings
* Prep: 20 min. Bake: 55 min. + cooling

Ingredients

* 2 tubes (8 ounces each) refrigerated crescent rolls
* 12 ounces pork sausage links, cooked and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
* 1 medium onion, chopped
* 1 tablespoon butter
* 1 jar (4-1/2 ounces) sliced mushrooms, drained
* 2 packages (3 ounces each) cream cheese, cut into 1/4-inch cubes
* 4 ounces process cheese (Velveeta), cut into 1/4-inch cubes
* 2 tablespoons chopped pimientos
* 6 eggs
* 2/3 cup half-and-half cream
* 1 tablespoon dried parsley flakes
* 1/2 teaspoon salt
* 1/2 teaspoon pepper
* 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
* Paprika

Directions

* Unroll one tube of crescent roll dough; press onto the bottom and up the sides of a greased 11-in. x 7-in. baking dish to form a crust. Seal seams and perforations. Sprinkle sausage over crust.
* In a skillet, saute the onion in butter until tender; add the mushrooms. Spoon over sausage. Top with cheeses and pimientos. In a bowl, beat the eggs, cream, parsley, salt, pepper and garlic powder; pour over all.
* Unroll remaining dough; seal seams and perforations. Cut into 1/2-in. lengthwise strips. Use strips to form a lattice crust on top. Sprinkle with paprika.
* Bake at 350° for 50-55 minutes or until knife inserted near the center comes out clean; cover loosely with foil if browning too quickly. Let stand for 10-15 minutes before cutting. Yield: 8-10 servings.
