What You Need

3
Italian sausage links (12 oz.)
3
oz. baby spinach (3-1/2 cups)
6
EGGS, beaten
6
croissants, split
3/4
cup shredded smoked gouda cheese (3 oz.)

Here’s How

  1. COOK sausages in large nonstick skillet over medium heat, turning occasionally, until cooked through, 10 to 12 minutes; remove from pan. LET COOL slightly, then cut lengthwise in half.
  2. CLEAN pan. COAT with cooking spray; heat over medium heat until hot. ADD spinach; sauté just until wilted, 2 to 3 minutes.
  3. POUR IN eggs. As eggs begin to set, GENTLY PULL the eggs across the pan with an inverted turner, forming large soft curds. CONTINUE cooking - pulling, lifting and folding eggs - until thickened and no visible liquid egg remains. Do not stir constantly.
  4. SPOON eggs onto croissant bottoms, dividing evenly. TOP each with a sausage half, then with cheese. COVER with croissant tops.
