I've always been a fan of breakfast scrambles, but I wanted to create a version that was a little more hearty and flavorful. I started by adding some breakfast sausage to the mix, which gave the scramble a nice savory flavor. Then I added some chopped vegetables, such as onions, bell peppers, and mushrooms. The vegetables added some sweetness and crunch to the scramble, and they also helped to bulk it up. Finally, I added some black beans to the scramble for some extra protein and fiber. The end result was a breakfast scramble that was both delicious and satisfying.

Ingredients
1 pound breakfast sausage
1/2 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup chopped bell pepper
1/2 cup chopped mushrooms
1 (15 ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
8 eggs
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a large skillet, brown the sausage over medium heat. Drain off any excess grease.
Stir in the onion, bell pepper, and mushrooms. Cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
Add the black beans, salt, and pepper. Cook for 1 minute more.
Spread the sausage and vegetable mixture evenly over the bottom of a greased 9x13-inch baking dish.
In a bowl, whisk together the eggs.
Pour the eggs over the sausage and vegetable mixture.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the eggs are set.
Why It Works
The combination of breakfast sausage, vegetables, and black beans makes this scramble a hearty and flavorful dish.
Roasting the vegetables in the oven before adding them to the scramble gives them a slightly caramelized flavor.
Using a mixture of eggs and milk gives the scramble a fluffy and moist texture.
