Ham and Cheese Crescent Roll Casserole

To make Ham and Cheese Crescent Roll Casserole, start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C) and greasing an 11 x 13 casserole dish. Roll out the crescent roll dough and line the bottom of the dish with it. In a separate bowl, whisk together whole milk, eggs, salt, and pepper, then mix in shredded cheese, chopped ham, and diced jalapeños. Pour this mixture over the crescent rolls and bake covered with foil for 20 minutes, then uncover and bake for another 20 minutes until golden brown.

No, traditional crescent roll dough contains gluten. However, you can make a gluten-free version by using gluten-free crescent roll dough or a suitable alternative like gluten-free biscuits. Just ensure that all other ingredients are also gluten-free.

If you prefer a milder flavor, you can substitute jalapeños with bell peppers or omit them entirely. For a spicier kick, consider using diced green chilies or serrano peppers. Adjust the amount based on your heat preference.

Store any leftover Ham and Cheese Crescent Roll Casserole in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. You can reheat individual portions in the microwave or warm the entire casserole in the oven at 350°F until heated through.

This casserole pairs well with a fresh green salad, fruit salad, or roasted vegetables. You could also serve it with a side of hash browns or breakfast potatoes for a hearty brunch spread.
