- Break up the sausage into small pieces as it cooks and set aside until you are ready for it later.
- While the sausage is cooking cut your onion and pepper into a small dice. Once the sausage has finished, remove it from the pan and add another 1 tbsp of oil. Add the onions and peppers and cook for a few minutes to develop color. Season lightly with salt.

I took a shortcut and used store-bought breakfast sausage but it turned out really well. I also used oat milk instead of regular to avoid the lactose and lean into the oat base of the dish.
I like how the peppers and onions complement the sausage and oats. I did drizzle on a teeny bit of hot sauce. Next time I might add mushrooms, too.
I doubled the meat and cut out the veggies (not in my breakfast!). This will be my weekday breakfast for at least the next month!
Hi, as always thanks for the recipes, but there seems to be a glitch in the calculator. I changed the servings to 6, as I usually do for every recipe, and just got home with enough ingredients to feed an army – 36 servings to be exact! 🤣
Just made this for the second time. This is such a great recipe for a filling and easy to take with you breakfast! I use turkey and this time I added an egg and reduced the oatmeal by half a cup. This will stay in the rotation! Thanks!
Absolutely killer.
So good and easy to heat up and eat that it’s hard not to just eat it outside of breakfast time. But you can always make more.
Easy to make, delicious and filling
