Ingredients

  • 250 g Liquid egg whites
  • 2 Large eggs
  • 150 g Lean turkey breakfast sausage
  • 40 g Feta cheese
  • 60 g Baby spinach
  • 1 tsp Olive oil
  • Salt & black pepper, to taste

Equipment

  • non-stick skillet

Method

  1. Brown the turkey sausage in a non-stick skillet over medium heat, breaking it up, 4-5 min. Push to one side.
  2. Add olive oil and the spinach; wilt for 30 seconds.
  3. Whisk the whole eggs into the egg whites, season, and pour into the pan.
  4. Stir gently until just set, fold in the crumbled feta, and serve hot.

Storage & make-ahead

Fridge: keeps 3–4 days in an airtight container — reheat gently. Most portions freeze well for up to 2 months; thaw overnight.

Tip

Egg whites carry the protein with almost no fat; the 2 whole eggs add flavor and choline. Swap feta for goat cheese to vary it.
