Preheat your oven to 375°F. Dice the onion and bell pepper while the oven warms.
In a 6 to 8 inch ovenproof skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the turkey sausage and cook for 4 to 5 minutes, breaking it into small bits with a spatula, until no pink remains and some bits are browned. Done when opaque and browned in parts, 165°F.
Add the onion and bell pepper to the skillet with the sausage. Sauté for 4 minutes until the vegetables are soft and the onion is translucent.
In a small bowl, whisk the whole eggs, egg whites, salt, pepper, and half the shredded cheddar cheese.
Pour the egg mixture over the sausage and peppers in the skillet. Stir once to distribute, then sprinkle the remaining cheese on top. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 12 to 15 minutes. Done when center is set and no longer jiggles, edges are golden, 160°F.
Remove the skillet from the oven and let it rest for 2 minutes before eating.
