Sausage & Kale Breakfast Skillet

Weeknight-friendly American cooking: Sausage & Kale Breakfast Skillet comes together in 20 minutes with breakfast sausage, kale, and not much else. Each serving lands at 460 calories with 28g of protein, so it eats like a much heavier meal. Naturally paleo and keto, it scales cleanly if you are cooking for more than one.

Ingredients

• 4 oz Breakfast sausage
• 2 cups Kale
• 2 Eggs
• 2 cloves Garlic
• 1 pinch Red pepper flakes

Steps

1. Place a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat, add the breakfast sausage, and break it into crumbles with a wooden spoon.
2. Brown 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until no pink remains and the edges look crisp.
3. While it browns, strip the kale leaves from their tough stems and chop them roughly; mince the garlic.
4. Add the garlic, kale, and red pepper flakes to the skillet and cook 3-4 minutes, stirring, until the kale wilts down and turns a deep glossy green.
5. Use the back of your spoon to make two wells in the mixture, then crack one egg into each well and cover with a lid.
6. Cook 4 minutes over medium-low heat until the whites are fully set and the yolks are still a little soft. Taste and adjust salt, then serve straight from the skillet.
