I wish I had a cutesy name for this dish but I don’t. You may recall me sharing Eggs and Zucchini before and it is still a favorite, but sometimes I want a little more pizazz from my breakfast, so here is what I came up with.
I finely diced a medium zucchini and put it into a frying pan with a little bit of oil.
(It wasn’t quite this much but this picture gives you an idea, since I failed to take step by step pictures the other day.
)
I added some finely diced onion and diced mushrooms too. Seasoned with salt and pepper.
When it was nearly as done as I like them, I added about 2 ounces of bulk pork sausage, pinched off in smallish bits.
Then cooked it until it was nicely browned.
I scooted it all to the side and added a little more oil (or butter) to the pan and fried one egg.
When the veggies and sausage were done I put them on a plate, added a bit of nutritional yeast, and then topped it all with my fried egg (over easy).
Since I had the sausage, I only had one egg because I’m in that stage of my life when I need to be cautious about how much protein I should be eating to lose weight.
Ingredients
