Ingredients: 1 large eggs; 4 large egg whites; 4 oz turkey sausage, casings removed and crumbled; 2 tbsp sharp cheddar cheese, shredded; 1/2 red bell pepper, diced; 1/3 cup yellow onion, diced; 1 tsp extra virgin olive oil; 1/4 tsp salt; 1/2 tsp black pepper; 1 tbsp water

Prep 15 min · Cook 25 min

Preheat the oven to 375°F. Dice the bell pepper and onion. In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, egg whites, water, half the salt, the black pepper, and half the shredded cheddar.
Heat the olive oil in an 8-inch ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add the crumbled turkey sausage and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, for 5 minutes until browned and cooked through. Done when browned and opaque, 165°F.
Add the bell pepper, onion, and the rest of the salt to the skillet with the sausage. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened.
Spread the mixture into an even layer in the skillet. Pour the egg mixture over the top. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 10 minutes.
Sprinkle the remaining cheddar over the top. Bake for 5 to 8 minutes more until the center is set and no longer jiggles when the skillet is nudged, and the edges are lightly golden. Let it stand 2 minutes (the skillet handle will be very hot, so use an oven mitt), then slide or scoop onto a plate. Done when set and not jiggling, 160°F.
