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
Directions
Step 1
Crack the eggs into a bowl, add the heavy cream, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until well combined and set aside.
Step 2
Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.
Step 3
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.
Step 4
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.
Step 5
Lower the heat to medium-low, then pour the egg mixture into the skillet over the sausage and spinach.
Step 6
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.
Step 7
Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the scrambled eggs, and stir briefly to incorporate.
Step 8
Taste and adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.
Step 9
Remove from heat and serve immediately, dividing the scrambled eggs evenly between two plates.
