Number Of Ingredients 13

1 pound bulk hot Italian sausage
2 large onions, finely chopped
1/2 pound sliced fresh mushrooms
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil

8 large eggs

1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese

Steps:

  • Crumble sausage into a 10-in. ovenproof skillet; cook over medium heat until no longer pink. Drain and set aside.

Add spinach in batches; cook over medium-low heat for 3-4 minutes or until spinach begins to wilt., In a large bowl, whisk eggs and hot pepper sauce. Return sausage to skillet; add egg mixture. As eggs set, lift edges, letting uncooked portion flow underneath. Cook until eggs are nearly set, about 8-10 minutes., Meanwhile, preheat broiler. Broil egg mixture 6 in. from the heat for 30-60 seconds or until set. Sprinkle with cheese; broil 30 seconds longer or until melted. Cut into wedges. Serve immediately.
