1. Preheat your oven to 375 F degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or silpat and set aside.
2. Microwave the cream cheese for about 30 seconds, just enough so that it's easily spreadable.
3. Sprinkle your work surface with a bit of flour. Unroll the crescent rolls and lay them flat on your floured work surface. Top each crescent with about 1 tbsp of cream cheese, about 1 tsp of the strawberry jam and about a tbsp of strawberries. Roll up the crescents and place them onto the prepared baking sheet.
4. Brush each roll with the egg wash, then sprinkle them with a bit of Turbinado sugar or granulated sugar.
5. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until golden brown.

Recipe Notes: Turbinado sugar is obtained from pure sugar cane, less processed than brown sugar. It has a light caramel flavor.

Advance preparation: You can assemble the crescent rolls through Step 3 and freeze them up to a month. First place the crescents on the baking sheet and place the baking sheet in the freezer and freeze the crescents for about an hour. After an hour, wrap the crescents in plastic wrap then place back in the freezer. You may also freeze the crescents after baking, let it warm completely then wrap it up in plastic wrap and freeze it. Then warm it in the oven at 350 for about 10 minutes.
