Notes

  • Don’t have ground breakfast sausage? You can easily substitute cooked sausage links, but I’d recommend thinly slicing them first.
  • Worried the eggs won’t be fluffy enough? Whisk a tablespoon or two of cream into your beaten eggs. It’s not necessary but always yields smoother, fluffier scrambled eggs and check out my tips for making the best scrambled eggs.
  • Pile on extra topping and serve each plate topped with crisp crumbled bacon and thinly sliced green onions for the ultimate indulgent breakfast on a dime.
