Ingredients
- 6 pieces large eggs
- 2 links vegetarian sausage
- 1 cup cheddar cheese
- 0.25 cup milk
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons chopped chives
Directions
Step 1
Begin by slicing the vegetarian sausage links into small, bite-sized pieces.
Step 2
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of butter. Once melted, add sliced sausage pieces and cook for about 5 minutes, or until browned. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
Step 3
In a medium bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them together with the milk, salt, and black pepper until combined.
Step 4
Reduce the skillet to low-medium heat and add the remaining tablespoon of butter. Once the butter has melted, pour in the egg mixture.
Step 5
Allow the eggs to cook gently. As they start to set, use a spatula to slowly drag the eggs from the edges to the center, forming large curds.
Step 6
When the eggs are about halfway cooked and still slightly runny, sprinkle the cheddar cheese and cooked sausage pieces over the top.
Step 7
Continue to gently fold the eggs until the cheese is melted and the eggs are fully cooked but still soft.
Step 8
Remove the skillet from the heat and garnish the scrambled eggs with chopped chives.
Step 9
Serve immediately while hot, perhaps with toast or a side salad.
