INGREDIENTS

• 6 links breakfast sausage sliced
• 6 slices bacon chopped
• 4 oz hard salami (such as Genoa) cubed
• 1 small onion sliced
• 1 medium bell pepper sliced
• 6 large eggs
• ¼ cup sour cream
• ½ cup cheddar cheese grated
• 2 stalks green onion (scallion) sliced
• salt and pepper

INSTRUCTIONS

• Prepare Protein Scramble Ingredients
• Slice bacon, breakfast sausage, and salami into bite sized pieces. Thinly slice onion, bell pepper, and green onions. Grate cheddar cheese and set aside until needed.
• Crack eggs into a large bowl and add in the sour cream. Beat with a fork or a whisk until well combined. The mixture should be consistent pale yellow with no unmixed egg whites or sour cream visible.

Cooking Instructions

• Place a frying pan over medium-high heat. Once hot add raw sliced bacon and sausage. Fry until cooked through, and just starting to brown and crisp. (5 - 8 minutes)
• Add chopped salami and continue to fry until the salami, bacon, and sausage have reached a level of crispness you are satisfied with. If the pan contains a lot of rendered fat, drain off a portion now to avoid greasy eggs (2 - 3 minutes)
• Next add the sliced onions and pepper to fry until softened. (1 minute)
• Stir in egg mixture, and using a spatula begin to combine and scramble everything in the pan. Cook eggs to desired doneness. (3-5 minutes)
• Stir in grated cheese, top with sliced green onion, and season to taste with salt and pepper.
