Instructions
- Step 1: Melt 1/2 tbsp butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Place 2 frozen breakfast sausage patties in the skillet and cook for 5-6 minutes per side until golden and cooked through, flipping once.
- Step 2: While sausages cook, crack 2 large eggs into the skillet (or a separate pan), season with a pinch of salt and black pepper, and cook for 3-4 minutes until whites are set and yolks remain runny.
- Step 3: Place one sausage patty on a plate, top with 2 oz sliced low-carb cheese, then add one cooked egg. Cover with the second sausage patty and serve immediately while warm.
