Ingredients
- ½ teaspoons Butter
- 4 whole Eggs
- 2 Tablespoons Milk, Yogurt, Or Cottage Cheese
- Salt And Pepper, to taste
- 8 whole Apple Chicken Sausage Links (I Used Applegate Brand)
- 4 whole Whole Wheat English Muffins, Split
- 4 ounces, weight Grated Gruyere Cheese
Preparation
Start by heating your broiler to high.
While the broiler is heating, melt the butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
In a medium sized bowl whisk together the eggs and the milk, yogurt, or cottage cheese (I used cottage cheese to keep the eggs light and fluffy) and a bit of salt and pepper. Add the eggs into the melted butter and cook, stirring lightly as the eggs set up. Cook the eggs for about 5 minutes, until set but slightly under cooked.
While the eggs are cooking, heat the sausage up either on a skillet or in the microwave, until heated through. Also, toast the muffins lightly in the broiler.
Now to assemble: Lay out the English muffins halves on a baking sheet. Top each half with one link of sausage (if you are using patties, slice them in half width wise and place one half of patty on each muffin; if you are using links slice them into bite-sized rounds). After the sausage, evenly divide the eggs among the 8 halves. Then sprinkle each half with the cheese.
Broil the pizzas until the cheese is melted and slightly golden—anywhere from 2-5 minutes depending on the power of your broiler.
