Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes
- 2 cups baby spinach
- 4 links breakfast sausage
- 1 medium red bell pepper
- 1 small yellow onion
- 3 ounces shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 2 tablespoons chopped parsley
Instructions
Begin by preparing your ingredients: slice the cherry tomatoes in half, roughly chop the baby spinach, dice the red bell pepper and onion, and chop the parsley. Set everything aside.
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. While the oil is heating, slice the sausage links into bite-sized pieces.
Add the sausage pieces to the skillet and cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until browned and fully cooked. Remove the sausage with a slotted spoon and set aside, leaving the oil in the pan.
In the same skillet, add the diced onion and red bell pepper. Sauté for 3-4 minutes, or until the vegetables are softened.
Stir in the cherry tomatoes and cook for another 2 minutes, allowing them to release their juices.
Add the baby spinach to the skillet and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring continuously, until wilted.
Return the cooked sausage to the skillet and stir everything together. Season with salt and black pepper.
In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs until fully beaten. Pour the eggs evenly over the sausage and vegetable mixture in the skillet.
Reduce the heat to low and cover the skillet with a lid. Allow the eggs to cook gently for about 5-7 minutes, or until set.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the top, re-cover the skillet, and let the cheese melt (about 1-2 minutes).
Remove the skillet from the heat and garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
Serve hot and enjoy your Breakfast Blast!
