Country Sausage & Egg Rolls



1 pound bulk pork sausage
1 cup chopped sweet onion
1 garlic clove, minced
1/2 teaspoon pepper, divided
1 tablespoon butter
8 eggs
3 tablespoons whole milk
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
3 green onions, chopped
15 sheets phyllo dough, (14 inches x 9 inches)
1/3 cup butter, melted

In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the sausage, sweet onion, garlic and 1/4 teaspoon pepper until meat is no longer pink; drain. Remove and keep warm.

In the same skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat. Whisk the eggs, milk, salt and remaining pepper; add to skillet. Cook and stir until almost set. Stir in the cheese, green onions and sausage mixture. Remove from the heat.

Place one sheet of phyllo dough on a work surface; brush with melted butter. Layer with four more phyllo sheets, brushing with butter after each layer. (Keep remaining phyllo covered with plastic wrap and a damp towel to prevent it from drying out.) Repeat, making three stacks.

Cut each stack in half widthwise and in half crosswise, forming four 7-in. x 4-1/2-in. rectangles. Spoon 1/4 cup egg mixture along a long side of each rectangle; roll up.

Place seam side down on an ungreased baking sheet. With a sharp knife, make four shallow slashes across each roll; brush with butter.

Bake at 350° for 30-35 minutes or until golden brown.

Yield: 12 servings.
