[wpinsertshortcodead id="pgypi60b189d6e468e"]
- 6 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons freshly chopped parsley
- 1/3 cup cup of milk (I use homo but 2 percent will do.)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 medium sausages cut into bite size chunks (Hone garlic or Italian work great.)
- 1 tablespoon oil for frying
- 1/2 medium red onion, chopped
- 1 1/2 cup diced hashbrown potatoes
- 10 medium cherry tomatoes, cut in half
- 1 cup old sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1 medium green onion, chopped
Add the eggs, milk, salt, pepper, and garlic powder to a bowl or measuring cup. Mix until well combined and a bit frothy. Set aside.
Add the oil to a pan over medium high heat. Place the sausage in and fry until cooked through.
Move the sausage to one side and add in the onion and potatoes. Stir and fry for a few minutes until the potatoes are cooked and the onion translucent.
Pour in the egg mixture, reduce the heat to medium, and allow to cook until the egg begins to set. Once it begins to set, add in the tomatoes. Cover and cook until the mixture just about sets completely.
Remove the cover and sprinkle the cheese and green onion over the top. Place the cover back and and continue to cook, for about 2 minutes, until the cheese melts.
Serve with toast and enjoy your farmers breakfast.
