Ingredients

Scale

Sausage

  • 1/2 lb ground pork or breakfast sausage (seasoned or plain)

Eggs

  • 4 fresh eggs

Cheese

  • 1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar or American cheese

Cooking Fat

  • 1 tablespoon butter or oil

Seasoning

  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Cook the Sausage: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the sausage and cook, breaking it apart with a spatula, until browned and no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess fat if needed and push the sausage to one side of the pan.
  2. Scramble the Eggs: In the same skillet, add a small pat of butter or a drizzle of oil to the cleared side. Crack the eggs directly into the pan, season with salt and pepper, and stir gently to scramble. Cook until soft but fully set.
  3. Combine and Add Cheese: Mix the cooked sausage and scrambled eggs evenly. Sprinkle shredded cheese over the mixture and cover the pan for 1-2 minutes to melt the cheese until gooey.
  4. Serve Warm: Remove the skillet from heat and serve immediately on its own or between toasted bread or a warm English muffin.

Notes

  • Use fresh eggs and high-quality sausage for the best flavor and texture.
  • Don’t overcook eggs; soft scrambled eggs have a creamier texture.
  • Add cheese at the end and cover the pan to ensure even melting.
  • Drain excess sausage fat to avoid a greasy dish.
  • Serve immediately or keep covered on very low heat to maintain freshness and melty cheese.
