- 4 sausage patties * can use vegetarian
- 8 eggs
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic salt * or regular salt
- 1/8 teaspoon ground pepper
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 cup broccoli * cut into small florets
- 1/2 cup cheddar cheese * shredded
Heat a large skillet over medium low. Add the sausage patties and cook until lightly browned, about 4-5 minutes. Flip and cook the other side for another 4-5 minutes or until browned and no longer pink in the center, about 4-5 minutes.
Remove and cut into bite size pieces. Set aside.
Crack the eggs into a medium bowl, season with the garlic salt and pepper, and whisk well.
Raise the heat to medium and melt the butter in the same skillet used to cook the sausage.
Once hot and bubbly, add the eggs and top with the cut up sausage patties, broccoli florets, and cheddar cheese.
Cook, stirring frequently until the eggs are done through, about 5-7 minutes.
Serve hot.
Tips and Techniques
