Miz Helen's Kitchen
Ingredients
6 Servings
1 pound breakfast sausage
3 English Muffins, split in half
6 eggs, room temperature
1/2 cup half & half
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
6 slices Colby-Jack Cheese
Directions
In a hot heavy skillet brown the breakfast sausage into little crumbles.
Leave the skillet on the burner with no heat.
Split in half 3 English Muffins and place them on a baking sheet.
Cook the muffins at 425 degrees for 8 minutes or until they are golden brown on top. Remove from oven and set aside.
Whisk the eggs, half & half, salt, pepper and cayenne until they are fully whipped.
Add 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese.
Heat the sausage to medium heat and add the egg mixture to the sausage.
Stir the eggs and sausage together until the eggs are setting, then add the last 1/2 of the shredded cheese.
With a large scoop place 1 scoop of the mixture on top of the toasted English Muffin, then place a slice of the Colby-Jack Cheese on top of the scoop of sausage & eggs.
Place under the oven broiler just long enough to melt the slice of cheese.
Serve hot with your favorite jelly or salsa.
Enjoy!
