Sausage & Kale Frittata

Last weekend I wanted a frittata. A healthy egg-y breakfast with cheese and vegetables … plus I had some leftover cooked breakfast sausage in my fridge that I decided to toss in. The flavor of the sausage with the kale and egg and cheese was magnificent. My stomach was pleased. My taste buds were happy. There was a bit of a giddy smile on my face and I could feel my body awakening from the healthy sustenance I’d just given it.

The kale came from my friend Kathy’s garden … or was it the kale my sister gave me? I am sooo blessed to have friends that give me fresh garden kale! It’s not as bitter as the store-bought kind. If your kale is bitter, try massaging it with a bit of olive oil before adding it to the skillet.

Instructions

1. In a medium frying pan over medium heat, add the avocado oil and swirl to coat the pan. Add the onion and garlic and saute until the onion is soft and translucent.
2. Meanwhile, cut the ribs from the kale and chop the leaves. Add the kale to the pan, cover for a minute, then stir. The kale should be wilted but still bright green. Stir in the sausage.
3. Pour the eggs into the pan and sprinkle the top with cheese. Cover and reduce heat to medium low. Let cook until the eggs are set, then cut into wedges and serve.
