Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Spread the tater tots on a baking sheet and bake until just golden brown and crispy, about 25 minutes.
- Meanwhile, whisk together the heavy cream, eggs, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl.
- Cook the bacon in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until browned and crispy, 7 to 8 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to transfer to a paper towel-lined plate. Pour off the bacon drippings and reserve 2 tablespoons. Add 1 tablespoon of the drippings and the sausage to the skillet and heat over medium-high. Cook, breaking up any large chunks with a wooden spoon, until cooked through and brown in some spots, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.
- Return the skillet over medium heat and add the remaining tablespoon of bacon drippings. Once hot and shimmering, add the egg mixture and cook, stirring frequently, with a rubber spatula, until soft and fluffy and almost completely cooked through but still a bit runny, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a clean large bowl.
- Coat the back of a baking sheet with cooking spray. Unroll both cans of crescent dough and separate unto 16 triangles. Put a 5-inch ramekin in the center of the prepared baking sheet. Arrange the triangles in a ring around the ramekin so the short sides of the dough are touching the ramekin, overlapping slightly, and the pointed ends are facing outward (it should look like a giant sun).
- Spoon the egg mixture over the short ends of the triangles closest to the ramekin. Sprinkle the sausage on top of the eggs then sprinkle the bacon over the sausage. Cover the bacon with the American and Cheddar cheese. Top with the potato tots and remove the ramekin. Take hold of the pointed end of one of the triangles and fold it up and over the filling, tucking the tip under the bottom edge of dough to secure (the dough will not cover the filling completely but should cover the tater tots). Repeat with the remaining triangles (there will be some gaps where you can see the filling).
- Bake until the dough is golden brown and the cheese is melted, about 25 minutes. Let cool for 15 minutes. Use a spatula to slide the ring off the baking sheet onto a platter. Serve with maple syrup, ketchup, hot sauce or white gravy if desired.
CRESCENT BACON BREAKFAST RING
I got this recipe off the internet a while back--my family loves it. When I make it for guests, they are literally blown away. You can change up the cheese (Pepper Jack) type or types of peppers (I add jalapenos), I even add a different sauce in the center--sometimes taco sauce, sometimes guacamole, sometimes sour cream--be creative.

Steps:
- Preheat over to 375°F.
- In a bowl, beat the eggs and add the chopped peppers. Cook the eggs in a skillet (scramble) until set but still slightly undercooked.
- Layout the crescent rolls on a sheet of parchment paper, in a "star" pattern. The short flat ends in the center, overlapping, and the pointed ends radiating out.
- On each crescent star point, lay a piece of the cooked bacon. If the bacon is crispy it will not fold over, so do not overcook the bacon.
- Sprinkle on 1/2 of the cheese in a circle around the center formed by the crescent roll ends overlapping. Then distribute the scramble egg mixture on top of the cheese. Then top with the remaining cheese.
- Fold the pointed ends toward the middle and press the tips together.
- In a small bowl, whisk the remaining egg with a little water. Brush the egg wash over the crescent rolls.
- Bake for about 20 minutes or until the crescents are cooked and golden brown.
- Spoon your favorite condiment in the center.
