We had some leftover breakfast sausage and I decided I would toss it in with the omelet this weekend. I kept it simple, deciding that I did not need to add much seasoning, since I was using a spicy sausage and some tasty cheese. It was hearty and delicious!

Ingredients:
3 large eggs
2-3 tbsp whole milk
2 tbsp Smoked Gouda (shredded)
2 tbsp Onion and Chive Double Gloucester (shredded)
1/3 cup mild cheddar (shredded)
1/3 cup hot breakfast sausage (broken into pieces)
1/4 tsp essence
fresh crack pepper (to taste)

In a small mixing bowl beat three eggs using a whisk. Whisk in milk and seasonings.

In a 10 inch skillet brown sausage over medium heat for 5-7 minutes. Remove the sausage and wipe away most of the grease with a paper towel being careful not to burn yourself. Leave just enough grease to barely coat the pan.

Add the sausage pieces back to one side of the skillet and then evenly pour in the egg mixture, cover and let cook for 5 minutes or until the mixture begins to set at the edges. Now add your cheeses by placing them along the same side of the omelet your sausage is on. Let cook 4-5 minutes covered. Fold omelet half without cheese over half with cheese using a spatula and let cook 2-3 minutes. Slide omelet onto a warm plate serve with toast or breakfast rolls.
