Cheesy breakfast sausage stuffed peppers

Step by Step

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350ºF and line a large casserole dish with tinfoil. Then spray with nonstick cooking spray.

Step 2

Prepare peppers by slicing in half hot dog style and removing the insides. Spray outside and inside with nonstick cooking spray and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Place in casserole dish.

Step 3

Whisk 6 large eggs in a small bowl, set aside.

Step 4

Add olive oil and minced garlic to a large sauce pan and heat to medium/high heat. Then, add in onion, sausage and kale. Sauté for 3-5 minutes or until onions are translucent.

Step 5

Add veggie/sausage mixture to the pepper halves. Then, top with scrambled eggs.

Step 6

Bake at 350ºF for 40-50 minutes depending on how you like your eggs. Remove from oven and sprinkle on a tablespoon of cheddar cheese to each pepper. Bake for a few more minutes to melt cheese.

Tips and Warnings

Depending on the shape of your peppers, you may need to prop them up on something so that the scrambled eggs don’t slide out. You can make a stand with tinfoil or arrange them so they rest on one another.
To freeze, make sure that your peppers have fully cooled. Then, cover in plastic wrap and place in a freezer safe ziploc bag for later. Will stay for up to one month.
