Recipe: Sausage, Egg, and Cheese Scramble

Ingredients:

• 6 links pork sausage
• 6 large eggs
• ¾ cup milk
• ¾ cup shredded sharp Cheddar cheese

Directions:

1. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the sausage until it’s browned evenly. Once cooked, drain any excess grease and chop the sausage into bite-sized pieces. Set aside.
2. As the sausage cooks, whisk the eggs and milk together in a bowl until well combined.
3. Pour the egg mixture onto a preheated griddle, stirring occasionally as it begins to set. Once it starts to thicken, sprinkle the shredded Cheddar cheese over the eggs, allowing it to melt while the eggs finish cooking.
4. Add the cooked sausage pieces to the egg and cheese mixture, stirring gently to blend everything. Serve warm and enjoy!

*Note: For a more complex flavor, add diced onion, chopped green peppers, or pre-cooked diced potatoes.
