Equipment

  • 1 muffin tin or 9x13 casserole pan
  • 1 medium bowl
  • 1 knife
  • 1 stove top pan
  • 1 cutting board

Ingredients

  • 8 eggs
  • ½ bell pepper
  • 1 serrano chili
  • ¼ cup finely cut zucchini
  • salt
  • pepper
  • 2 to 4 shoots green onions
  • 2 cups sausage
  • shredded cheese

Instructions

  • Begin by preheating the oven to 375.
  • Take the sausage and cook it in the pan on the stove. cook the meat and break it into smaller pieces until the meat is browned and fully cooked.
  • Chop the bell peppers, serrano chili, green onions, and zucchini into smaller pieces. I like to dice them into small squares but I make sure to cut the zucchini smaller then the rest so that they are less prominent.
  • Crack the eggs into a medium sized bowl.
  • Add the chopped veggies to the eggs.
  • Using a spoon with holes or a strainer, transfer the sausage to the bowl with the rest of the ingredients. Make sure to drain as much of the grease as you can.
  • Add the salt and pepper to the bowl and stir everything together.
  • Pour the whole bowl into the casserole pan and sprinkle as much cheese as you would like on top.
  • Place the pan into the oven and cook for 25 minutes or until the egg is fully cooked through and not "jiggling" when you move the pan.
  • Remove from the oven, cut and serve.

Notes

* You may have to adjust the cooking time based on your oven.  
*You can cook this dish in a casserole pan or in a muffin tin.  It will not need to cook as long if its a muffin. 
*This casserole tastes amazing with any kind of hot sauce.  I personally like to use a spicy hot sauce I got from our local farmers market.
