Preheat the oven to 375°F. Lightly coat a small skillet with cooking spray. Add the crumbled sausage and cook over medium heat for 6 minutes, stirring often, until browned. Done when browned and cooked through, 165°F.

Coat a small oven-safe baking dish with cooking spray. Pour the egg mixture into the dish and top with the mozzarella cheese. Bake for 25 minutes until the center is set and no longer jiggles. Done when set in the center, 160°F.
While the egg bake rests for a few minutes, toast the whole-wheat bread.
