HOW TO MAKE IT

Let's cook.

01

Remove the casing from the Italian sausage. In a large non-stick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat.

02

Add the Italian sausage to the skillet and break it apart with a spoon. Cook for 5-7 minutes, or until browned and cooked through, stirring occasionally. Drain any excess fat.

03

Add the diced red bell pepper, green bell pepper, and onion to the skillet with the cooked sausage. Sauté for 5-7 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender-crisp.

04

While the vegetables are cooking, whisk the eggs in a medium bowl with the grated Parmesan cheese, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

05

Pour the egg mixture over the sausage and vegetables in the skillet. Let it set for about 30 seconds without stirring.

06

Gently push the cooked egg from the edges towards the center with a spatula, allowing the uncooked egg to flow underneath. Continue cooking and gently stirring for 2-3 minutes, or until the eggs are set but still moist.

07

Serve immediately.

Chef's Tips

For an extra kick, use spicy Italian sausage. A sprinkle of fresh parsley or basil before serving adds a nice touch of freshness. You can also add a pinch of red pepper flakes with the vegetables for more heat.

Easy Substitutions

Ground turkey or chicken can be used instead of Italian sausage. Any color of bell pepper will work. For a dairy-free option, omit the Parmesan cheese. Spinach or mushrooms can be added with the bell peppers for more vegetables.
