Ingredients

  • 1 (16 ounce) package Regular Flavor Jimmy Dean Pork Sausage, cooked, crumbled and drained
  • 8 eggs, lightly beaten
  • ¼ cup milk or water
  • ¾ cup shredded Cheddar, mozzarella or provolone cheese
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil or butter
  • ½ cup thinly sliced green onion

  • 1 cup frozen Southern-style hash brown potatoes or diced, pre-baked red potatoes (Optional)
  • ¼ cup Parmesan cheese (Optional)

Directions

Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). In a large mixing bowl, combine eggs, milk or water, cheese, salt, and pepper; set aside. Heat olive oil or butter in a large skillet; saut? onions and any optional vegetables desired until vegetables are tender. Add vegetables and sausage to egg mixture; stir well.

Step 2
Place 12 foil baking cups into the cupcake pan. Distribute sausage-and-egg mixture evenly into baking cups. Bake until eggs are set, about 22 minutes. Remove from the oven. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese if desired.

Tips

Time-Saving Tip: One 10-ounce package of fully cooked Jimmy Dean Hearty Sausage Crumbles may be substituted for one 16-ounce roll of fresh breakfast sausage in most dishes.
