Sausage and Rutabaga Scramble



If you’re looking for something new to try and are a fan of scrambles either for a weekend breakfast or breakfast for dinner this recipe is for you. Howard and I love scrambles and we always try to pack them with vegetables; this one is no exception. If you try it out, let me know what you think.


What You’ll Need…

1 Tablespoon Olive Oil
½ A Large Rutabaga (Cubed)
1 Parsnip (Optional) (Chopped)
¼ Large Onion (Chopped)
1 Bell Pepper (Diced)
½ Cups Corn
2 Large Handfuls Greens (Spinach, Kale, Chard, anything you like.)
1 Package Sausage (Your favorite kind.)
5 Eggs
Garlic Powder (To taste)
Chili Powder (To taste)
Paprika (To taste)
Herbes de Provence (To taste)
Season Salt (To taste)
Black Pepper (To taste)
Cheese (To top)

Preheat your oven to 350.

Start out by chopping the vegetables and cooking the sausage if it does not come fully cooked.

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet before adding the rutabaga, parsnip, and onion. Sprinkle lightly with pepper and allow the vegetables to start to cook. Stir occasionally. Once the vegetables start to brown add the peppers before moving the skillet to the oven for about 10-15 minutes so that the rutabaga can cook through.
 
While the vegetables are in the oven move on to the sausage and eggs. Thinly slice the sausage and set it aside until the vegetables are ready. At this time also crack 5 eggs into a bowl and lightly beat them.

After removing the vegetables from the oven place it directly back on the stove-top and add the corn, sausage, and spices. Stir thoroughly so that everything is even distributed. Allow the corn and sausage to heat up, about 3-5 minutes, before adding the greens.
Allow the greens to wilt down, and they will shrink quite a bit, before stirring them in and adding the eggs.

Once you add the eggs stir the whole mixture around gently just like when making regular scrambled eggs until the eggs are cooked.

When the eggs are cooked the scramble is ready to eat. Top with cheese and enjoy just like that or enjoy with both cheese and ketchup.

 
Enjoy!
