Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 medium bell pepper
- 1 small onion
- 1 cup spinach
- 2 links cooked breakfast sausage
- 0.5 cups shredded cheese
- 1 teaspoon hot sauce (optional)
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a mixing bowl and whisk together with the milk, salt, and black pepper until combined. Set aside.
Dice the bell pepper and onion into small pieces. Slice the cooked sausage into bite-sized rounds.
Heat olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Add the diced bell pepper and onion to the skillet. Sauté for 3–4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened.
Add the sliced sausage and cook for 2 more minutes to warm through.
Add the spinach to the skillet and cook for 1–2 minutes, stirring, until wilted.
Reduce the heat to low and pour the whisked eggs into the skillet, spreading them evenly over the vegetables and sausage.
Stir gently with a spatula as the eggs begin to set, ensuring everything is evenly mixed.
Once the eggs are fully cooked and scrambled (about 3–4 minutes), sprinkle the shredded cheese over the top and allow it to melt.
Optional: Drizzle with hot sauce for a spicy kick.
Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious Morning Mix Up!
