- 1 pound ground turkey breakfast sausage

- 1/4 cup skim milk
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground white pepper
- 1/2 cup cheddar cheese low-fat, shredded
Instructions
- In a large skillet heat the olive oil on medium heat. Once hot add the potatoes, onion, and green pepper. Cook until the potatoes are lightly browned and tender.
- Add the ground turkey sausage to the pan in small chunks, about 1 tablespoon of meat per chunk. Stir to cook the sausage and lightly breaking the turkey sausage into smaller pieces.
- While the turkey sausage cooks, combine the whole eggs, egg whites, milk, salt and pepper in a mixing bowl and lightly whisk together.
- Once the sausage is cooked through add the egg mix to the skillet. Lightly move the eggs around the skillet with a spatula or wooden spoon to cook and scramble.
