Ingredients
– 2 pounds sausage
– 12 eggs
– 1 cup sour cream (light or regular)
– 1/4 cup milk
– 1 teaspoon salt
– 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
– 4 green onions
– 1/2 green bell pepper, diced
– 1/2 red bell pepper, diced
– 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
Instructions
1-Gathering and Prepping Your Ingredients: First, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly coat a 9×13 inch baking pan with cooking spray to prevent sticking. Start by preparing all ingredients: dice the vegetables, cook the sausage until browned, breaking it into small pieces, and drain most of the grease. This step sets the foundation for a smooth assembly process, making your morning meals more efficient.
2-Mixing and Combining: In a large bowl, combine the 12 eggs, 1 cup sour cream, 1/4 cup milk, 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper. Mix on low speed until just combined, creating a creamy base that’s packed with nutrition. Explore more quick breakfast ideas on our site for additional inspiration. Next, in the same skillet, sauté the 4 green onions, 1/2 diced green bell pepper, and 1/2 diced red bell pepper for 2 to 3 minutes until they’re tender and aromatic.
3-Assembling and Baking: Add the cooked sausage and sautéed vegetables to the egg mixture, then stir everything together to combine thoroughly. Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and bake for 35 to 50 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center is slightly jiggly.
