Ingredients
Veggie Smart Italian Sausage
1-2 (sliced in half)
Eggs
3 (beaten)
Salt
to taste (added to eggs)
Pepper
to taste (added to eggs)
Olive Oil
2 tablespoons (for cooking)
Dill Weed
1 tablespoon (fresh or dried)
Chives
1 tablespoon (chopped)
Garlic Clove

Instructions
1
Begin by slicing the veggie Italian sausage link in half. In a skillet, heat a small amount of olive oil over medium heat. Add the sausage halves and pan sear them until they are golden brown, flipping occasionally for even cooking. Remove from heat once they reach your desired crispness.
2
While the sausage cooks, prepare the egg mixture. In a medium bowl, crack the eggs and whisk in the chives, dill weed, pressed garlic, and a dash of salt and pepper. Mix until well combined.
3
In the same skillet used for the sausage, heat an additional tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat and pour in the egg mixture. Gently scramble the eggs, allowing them to cook until the whites are fully set. For a firmer scramble, continue cooking until most of the moisture is cooked off. Adjust seasoning with extra salt and pepper if preferred.
4
Once cooked, chop the seared sausage into bite-sized pieces and fold them into the scrambled eggs. Mix thoroughly to combine all flavors.
5
To assemble, spoon the egg and sausage mixture into a low carb tortilla or an organic Lavash flatbread wrap. Roll it up tightly and enjoy your delicious breakfast on the go!
