  • salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 6 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 4 1 1/2-ounce turkey sausage patties
  • 1 cup arugula, cleaned with large stems removed
  • 4 whole wheat english muffins, split and toasted
  • 1 medium tomato, sliced

PreparationMethod To prepare the turkey sausage and arugula: In a preheated small nonstick sauté pan, cook the turkey sausage patties over medium heat for 2 to 3 minutes on each side or until the patties are golden brown and thoroughly cooked. Remove the turkey sausage patties from the pan. Add the arugula to the same pan along with 1 tablespoon water. Quickly wilt the arugula and remove from the heat. To prepare the eggs: Place the olive oil in a preheated nonstick medium sauté pan. Crack the eggs into a small mixing bowl and whisk together with a fork for 1 minute. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Pour the egg mixture into the pan and let sit for 15 seconds. Using a small rubber spatula, gently move the eggs around the pan, scraping from the bottom every 7 seconds or so. Continue to cook the eggs for 2 minutes longer or until they are just cooked (they should glisten and be just set). Assembly Place a cooked turkey sausage patty on each muffin bottom and top with the cooked eggs. Place the wilted arugula and sliced tomato over the eggs and top with the other half of the muffin. Serve immediately.
