Egg & Potato Scramble

Egg & Potato Scramble

Looking for a hearty breakfast, but can't spare a ton of calories?? I have the answer! This protein-rich, veggie-filled breakfast scramble is bound to keep you full all morning!



Ingredients:
1 whole egg + 2 egg whites
1 small yellow potato, diced (about 3/4 cup)
1/4 cup turkey sausage (I use Jimmy Dean fully cooked turkey hearty sausage crumbles)
1/4 cup diced onion
1/3 cup chopped bell peppers (I use both red and green)
1 white mushroom, diced
2 T reduced fat shredded cheese
Dash of LA hot sauce




Chop all veggies into fairly small pieces (I like this because then i can have more flavors in my bite :)

Potatoes and onions first so the flavors can...stew :-P

Heat skillet  to medium-low heat; spray with cooking spray.  Add potatoes and onion and saute until soft. Add diced peppers and mushroom, then add sausage. Saute about 5-10 minutes until all ingredients are hot.

Doesn't that look delicious already???

While the veggie mixture is cooking, beat 1 large egg and 2 extra egg whites with a dash (or two!) or Lousiana hot sauce and pepper to taste.

 

Add to vegetable mixture and keep stirring until egg is fully cooked. Add cheese and stir until melted.

All ready to go for work! Note: I do not condone heating
in plastic containers, but I do it anyway :-/
