5. Add the Cheese:
- Sprinkle the shredded Monterey Jack cheese over the sausage and pepper mixture.

6. Serve:
- Once the cheese is melted and everything is well-combined, remove the skillet from heat.
- Serve immediately, either as is or with a side of toast or scrambled eggs for a complete breakfast.

Tips:

- Use a non-stick skillet to prevent the sausage and vegetables from sticking.

- For extra flavor, consider adding a pinch of garlic powder or onion powder while sautéing.

- Cut the bell peppers into uniform sizes to ensure even cooking.

- Feel free to substitute Vienna sausage with other types of sausage if preferred.

- Add a dash of hot sauce or a pinch of chili flakes if you like a bit of heat.
