Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 cups fresh spinach
- 2 links turkey sausage
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes
- 0.25 cup feta cheese
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh basil leaves
Directions
Step 1
Crack the eggs into a bowl and beat them with a fork or whisk until the yolks and whites are thoroughly combined. Set aside.
Step 2
Remove the turkey sausage from its casing and slice it into small chunks.
Step 3
Heat olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Step 4
Add the sausage chunks to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until they are browned all over, about 5-7 minutes.
Step 5
Add the spinach to the skillet with the sausage and cook until wilted, about 1-2 minutes.
Step 6
Stir in the cherry tomatoes and cook until they soften, about 1 minute.
Step 7
Pour the beaten eggs over the sausage, spinach, and tomatoes in the skillet.
Step 8
Using a spatula, gently stir occasionally, allowing the eggs to scramble softly and cook through, approximately 3-4 minutes.
Step 9
Season the scrambled eggs with salt and black pepper.
Step 10
Sprinkle feta cheese over the top and give the scramble a gentle stir so the cheese melts slightly.
Step 11
Remove from heat and transfer the scrambled eggs to serving plates.
Step 12
Garnish with fresh basil leaves before serving.
