Ingredients:

2 eggs
100g
2 oz italian sausage
54g
2 slices whole-wheat bread
54g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Ingredients:
- Crack the eggs into a bowl and whisk them until well-beaten.
- Remove the sausage casing (if any) and crumble the sausage into small pieces.
2. Cook the Sausage:
- Heat a non-stick skillet or frying pan over medium heat.
- Add the crumbled Italian sausage to the pan.
- Cook the sausage, stirring occasionally, until it’s browned and fully cooked, approximately 5-7 minutes.
- Transfer the cooked sausage to a plate and set aside.
3. Cook the Eggs:
- In the same skillet, add a small amount of butter or cooking oil if needed.
- Pour the beaten eggs into the skillet.
- Cook, stirring gently, until the eggs are scrambled and just set, about 2-3 minutes.
- Combine the cooked sausage with the scrambled eggs in the skillet and mix well.
4. Toast the Bread:
- While the eggs and sausage are cooking, toast the whole-wheat bread slices until golden brown.
5. Assemble the Sandwich:
- Place one slice of toasted whole-wheat bread on a plate.
- Spoon the sausage and scrambled egg mixture onto the bread.
- Place the second slice of toasted bread on top to form a sandwich.
6. Serve:
- Serve the sandwich immediately while hot. Optionally, you can add your favorite condiments, cheese, or fresh vegetables to personalize your sandwich.

Tips:

- Pre-cook your Italian sausage.: Cooking the sausage ahead of time will save you valuable minutes during the morning rush. Simply cook it thoroughly the night before and store it in the refrigerator.

- Use non-stick spray or a small amount of oil.: Prevent the eggs from sticking to the pan by using a non-stick spray or a small amount of oil. This helps in easy flipping and a fluffier texture.

- Toast the whole-wheat bread.: Toasting your bread will add a nice crunch and prevent it from becoming soggy when you add the eggs and sausage.

- Season your eggs.: Add a pinch of salt and pepper to the eggs while cooking to enhance their flavor.

- Customize with toppings.: Feel free to add other toppings like spinach, tomatoes, or a slice of cheese for an extra layer of flavor and nutrition.

Enjoy your hearty Italian sausage and egg breakfast sandwich on whole-wheat bread as a delicious and nutritious way to start your day. With just a few simple steps and tips, you can create a satisfying meal that fuels your morning and keeps you full until lunchtime.
