This recipe is reminiscent of a crescent roll breakfast pizza that I make from time to time, but greatly improved! The puff pastry is much lighter and flakier! It would be fun to try a southwest version of this casserole using cooked crumbled chorizo, thinly sliced poblano peppers, and topped with some crumbled queso fresco!
