Total Time: 45 minutes
Servings: 8

Ingredients

  • 8 eggs, beaten
  • 2 ounce  Gruyere, grated
  • 1/2 teaspoon  black pepper
  • Pinch salt
  • 1 teaspoon  butter
  • 1 lb. spicy Italian sausage, ground (if you buy links, remove casing) -- you can also use breakfast sausage
  • 8 ounces  mushrooms
  • 4 cups  spinach - or 1 package freshly washed spinach  (you can substitute your favorite greens – kale, Swiss chard)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to broil setting.
  • In medium size bowl, use a whisk to blend the eggs, Gruyere, pepper, and salt together. You want the egg mixture nice and frothy.
  • Heat 12-inch non-stick, oven safe sauté pan over medium high heat.
  • Add butter to pan and melt.
  • Add sausage to the pan and use a wooden spoon to break up sausage. When the sausage is nice and golden brown remove with a slotted spoon, put it in a bowl and set aside.
  • Add spinach to pan and sauté until wilted, about 5 – 7 minutes.
  • When the spinach is wilted add the mushrooms and continue to sauté until the mushrooms soften, about 5 minutes.
  • Add the cooked sausage back to the pan and pour egg mixture over vegetables. Cook for about 4 to 5 minutes or until the egg mixture has set on the bottom and begins to set up on top.
  • Place pan into oven and broil for 3 to 4 minutes, until lightly browned and fluffy. Watch carefully!
  • Remove from pan and cut into 6 servings.
  • Serve immediately.
