Ingredients

  • 10-12 oz sweet Italian Sausage*
  • 1/2 red bell pepper, sliced
  • 1/2 green bell pepper, sliced
  • 1/2 white onion, diced
  • 1 1/2 tsp minced garlic
  • 1-2 cups gold potatoes, diced
  • 1 1/2 tsp Italian seasoning blend
  • 1 1/2 tsp sea salt

  • 14.5 oz can diced tomatoes, drained
  • 10 eggs, whisked

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375ºF.  Line a baking dish with parchment paper, or use the olive oil to grease it well.

  • Add the vegetables (bell peppers, onion, garlic) to the pan and sauté until just softened, about 3 minutes.  Transfer to the baking dish, over top of the potatoes.
  • Add the sausage to the pan, and cook until browned.  Transfer to the baking dish.
  • To the baking dish, add the diced tomatoes.  Stir the mixture of potatoes, vegetables, sausage, and tomatoes to combine.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs with milk and spices.  Pour over top of the meat & vegetable mixture.
  • Transfer to the oven and bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the eggs are fully set.
  • Slice into 8 servings, and serve hot over arugula or your choice of greens.
