6. For each square, place a spoonful of scrambled eggs, add some shredded cheddar cheese, and top with a piece of the sausage link.
7. Roll up the squares, enclosing the filling, and place seam side down on the baking sheet.
8. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown and puffy.
9. Allow to cool slightly before serving. Dive into your delicious breakfast roll-ups!
