Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 eggs
- 2 tablespoons heavy cream
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 links sausages
- 2 cups fresh spinach leaves
- 0.5 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a bowl, add the heavy cream, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until well combined and set aside.
Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.
Slice the sausage links into small rounds and add them to the skillet. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until they are browned and cooked through.
Add the fresh spinach leaves to the skillet with the sausage and cook for another 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the spinach has wilted.
Lower the heat to medium-low, then pour the egg mixture into the skillet over the sausage and spinach.
Gently stir the eggs with a spatula, incorporating the sausage and spinach evenly through the eggs. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the eggs are just set but still soft and creamy.
Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the scrambled eggs, and stir briefly to incorporate.
Taste and adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.
Remove from heat and serve immediately, dividing the scrambled eggs evenly between two plates.
