Ingredients

  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 cups fresh spinach
  • 2 links sausage
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Crack the eggs into a mixing bowl and add the milk, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until fully combined and slightly frothy.

Step 2

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.

Step 3

Remove the sausage from its casing (if necessary) and crumble it into the skillet. Cook the sausage for about 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until browned and cooked through.

Step 4

Add fresh spinach to the skillet with the sausage and stir. Cook for about 2-3 minutes until the spinach is wilted and combined with the sausage.

Step 5

Push the sausage and spinach to the side of the skillet and add the butter to the cleared portion of the skillet. Allow the butter to melt.

Step 6

Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and gently stir with a spatula. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the eggs are scrambled and just set, about 3-4 minutes. Make sure the egg mixture incorporates the sausage and spinach by the end of the cooking process.

Step 7

Remove the skillet from the heat and check the seasoning. Adjust salt and pepper if necessary.

Step 8

Serve immediately while the eggs are warm, along with toast or your favorite breakfast sides.
