1 cup shredded pepper jack cheese
1 can croissant rolls (recommended: Pillsbury Crescent Rolls)

- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Cut each jalapeno in half removing the stem and seeds. Place precooked sausage in 1 half of the jalapeno and sprinkle the other half with cheese, roughly reforming the jalapeno.
- Pop open the package of croissant rolls. On a work surface, unroll 1 roll placing the longest side toward you.
