Ingredients

  • 1 lb mild or spicy Italian sausage OR pork breakfast sausage
  • 1 8 oz container baby portabella or cremini mushrooms sliced
  • 1 small red bell pepper seeded and diced
  • 1 small green bell pepper seeded and diced
  • 1 small bunch green onions thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup thinly sliced fresh basil (chiffonade)
  • 2 cups shredded Asiago OR Gruyere cheese divided use
  • 14 large eggs
  • 1 cup light cream or whole milk
  • 1 8 oz container ricotta cheese
  • 2 tsp salt divided use
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp granulated garlic
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 3 Tbsp grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Liberally spray a 15 x 10 x 1 inch jelly roll pan with cooking spray. Set aside.
  • In a large skillet cook the sausage over medium high heat for 5-7 minutes or just until no pink remains. Remove from the pan using a slotted spoon reserving 2 Tbsp drippings in the pan.
  • To the skillet add red bell pepper, green bell pepper and mushrooms. Season with 1/2 tsp salt. Cook for 3-5 minutes over medium-high heat just until beginning to soften. Scrape any brown bits from the bottom of the pan. Remove from the heat.
  • Assemble: Arrange cooked sausage on pan. Top with red bell pepper, green bell pepper, green onions and ribbons of basil. Sprinkle with 1 cup shredded cheese.
  • In a medium size bowl, whisk together eggs, cream or milk, ricotta cheese, 1 tsp salt, black pepper, granulated garlic, onion powder and ground nutmeg. Pour egg mixture evenly over ingredients in pan.
  • Sprinkle top with reserved 1 cup shredded cheese and grated Parmesan cheese.
  • Place into the oven and bake for 35-45 minutes. Check it at 30 minutes and gently shake the pan, the eggs should be set. If not, bake in 5 minute increments and check again. You can broil for a few minutes at the end to brown the top, if desired.
  • Cut into 12 even squares and serve with croissants, buttermilk biscuits, on toast or bagels with your favorite breakfast sides.
  • Store chilled in an airtight container for up to 5 days. Reheat in 15 second increments in the microwave just until heated through.
