Spinach & Chive Omelette with Bacon & Maple Breakfast Sausage Links

What You’ll Need

For the Omelette

• 4 large pasture raised eggs

• 2 tbsp butter 

• ¼ cup chopped chives

• 1 cup fresh spinach, roughly chopped

• 2 tbsp milk or cream (optional, for fluffier texture)

• Salt and pepper to taste

• Optional: shredded cheese (Swiss, cheddar, or goat cheese work great) & hot sauce or salsa

For the Sides

• 4–6 strips of bacon

• 6 maple breakfast sausage links

Let’s Cook

1. Cook the Bacon and Sausage

1. For the bacon:

   • Place bacon strips in a cold skillet.

   • Turn heat to medium and cook slowly, flipping occasionally, until crispy and golden.

   • Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.

2. For the sausage links:

   • In a separate skillet over medium heat, add the sausage links.

   • Cook for 8–10 minutes, turning occasionally, until browned and cooked through (internal temp 160°F).

   • Keep warm while you make the omelette.

2. Make the Omelette

1. Crack eggs into a bowl, add milk (if using), and whisk until smooth and fully blended.

2. Heat butter in a non-stick or stainless skillet over medium heat until melted and foamy.

3. Pour in the eggs and swirl to coat the pan evenly.

4. Once the edges start to set, use a spatula to gently pull the cooked egg toward the center, letting uncooked egg flow underneath.

5. Sprinkle in the chopped spinach and chives evenly across the top (and cheese if using).

6. When the omelette is mostly set but still slightly glossy on top, fold one side over gently.

7. Cook another 30 seconds, then slide onto a plate.

Serve It Up

Serve the omelette hot with a sprinkle of extra chives on top, add favorite hot sauce or salsa. Add a side of crispy bacon and sweet maple sausage for a balanced, protein-packed breakfast.
