Ingredients
Directions
4 links (12 oz. total) reduced-fat pre-cooked chicken sausage1 tsp. + 1 tsp. olive oil4 cups (packed) baby spinach1/2 cup thinly sliced green onions (optional, not in nutrition count)1 cup grated low-fat mozzarella8 eggs, beaten1 tsp. Mrs. Dash Original Seasoning (more or less to taste, or use any type of all-purpose seasoning blend) fresh ground black pepper to tastelow-fat sour cream for serving (optional)
Heat oven to 375F/190C. Spray a 9"x12" casserole dish with non-stick spray. (The dish can be slightly smaller too, which will give a thicker result.)
Cut the sausage in half lengthwise, and then slice into half-moons about 3/8 inch thick. Heat 1 teaspoon of olive oil in a large non-stick frying pan and cook the sausage until it's well-browned. Put browned sausage in the bottom of the casserole dish.
Put the second teaspoon of oil into the same pan and saute the baby spinach just until it starts to wilt, about 2 minutes. Put the wilted spinach over the sausage in the casserole dish. Sprinkle green onions and grated mozzarella over the spinach, season with Mrs. Dash and black pepper, and pour the eggs over. Use a fork to gently "stir" so that all the ingredients are coated with egg.
Bake 30-35 minutes, depending on how browned you like it. Serve hot, with a dollop of low-fat sour cream on top if desired.
