This easy and healthy breakfast takes only a few minutes to pull together, thanks to help from frozen dinner rolls! Bake them over the weekend and reheat tasty, portable Bacon Egg and Cheese Rolls all week long for a quick breakfast or snack on the go!
Now that back-to-school season is in full swing, I thought that you would appreciate a little bit of help in the breakfast department. If you’re like me, it seems like the morning rush is always that: a RUSH! No matter how organized I think that I am, we are constantly racing to get everyone’s teeth brushed and bags packed in order to get out the door on time. With three little boys, that is no easy feat (and I always feel a sense of accomplishment when I have the kids successfully loaded in the car)!
That’s where this breakfast idea comes in handy. While these rolls are perfectly delicious on a lazy Saturday morning hot out of the oven, I think that I appreciate them even more during the week. If I prepare a batch on the weekend and store them in a container in the refrigerator, I have a nutritious breakfast option that I can just reheat in the microwave or toaster oven. It sure beats standing over the stove stirring scrambled eggs while my boys chase each other in laps around the house!
And don’t overlook the fact that these little treats are perfect for eating on-the-go! Running out the door to catch the bus? Riding in the car? Packing a snack for your office? The rolls are mess-free, full of protein, and an easy way to stay healthy on the run.
Because these days that’s what we’re doing: running, running, running!

These rolls look absolutely gorgeous, Blair! I’ve never seen anything quite like this before, so I’m loving it! Such a great idea to add all of the delicious ingredients inside the rolls. What a perfect grab n go meal. Heading over to check out the recipe!
Thanks, Gayle! The method is so easy and perfect that I want to try a zillion different flavor combinations! I figured it was safest to start with the basics, though…
This is so creative, Bair! Grab and go breakfasts are the best.
Thanks, Jen! 🙂
Could not find the recipe for Bacon egg and cheese roll.could you send me recipe?
Nevermind 🙂 the site finally opened for me. Thanks for the recipe.
Oh, good! I was just getting ready to send you an email, Stephanie. 🙂 Glad that you got it working. I hope that you try these — you’ll LOVE them!
Oh my goodness, I’m heading over to grab the recipe right now! I’m pretty sure if I made these for breakfast, my husband would never want anything else I make again! I can already guarantee these’ll be a hit over here!! Thanks Blair! 🙂
Hah! Thanks, Anna! My husband devoured a few right out of the oven, too!
I can’t locate the recipe either. I would like to make the Egg Cheese Rolls.
Sorry, Jeanette! I had a bad link there. My fault! I have fixed it now, or you can access the recipe directly here: https://www.coffeecupsandcrayons.com/bacon-egg-cheese-rolls/
Thank you I now have the recipe. I am not a wing it girl but a recipe girl. Love the idea of making them on Sunday for the week. Then placing in a airtight container. How do wrap them for the road in foil?
Hi, Jeanette! Yes, I think they would be fine wrapped in foil. You can definitely eat them leftover and at room temp, but they are just softer than when they come out of the oven (still good — this is how I eat them). BUT, if you prefer them crispy like they are when they’re straight out of the oven, you could reheat them in the toaster oven (or regular oven) for a few minutes just to get them toasty again. Then wrap in foil and go!
Enjoy!
Thank you for the help. So at room temp it would be like a egg salad bun? Now they are being sent out the door at room temp, lol. Have a wonderful day!
