My Best Kitchen Secrets

Make-ahead magic: If you need to save time, prepare the rolls up to the baking step the night before. Cover and refrigerate, and simply pop them in the oven the next morning!
Ingredient swaps: If you don’t have sausage, feel free to substitute with cooked turkey bacon or crumbled beef for a different flavor profile.

Slicing tricks: Use a serrated knife for neat slices that won’t squish your beautiful rolls.
