Description

Imagine starting your day with a burst of Mediterranean sunshine, captured in a handheld delight. This breakfast sandwich replaces traditional bread with savory Italian sausage patties, offering a hearty and flavorful foundation for a vibrant filling. The sausage, browned to perfection, provides a satisfyingly rich and seasoned base, its subtle spice notes awakening the palate.

Nestled between these savory 'bread' slices are fluffy scrambled eggs, their delicate texture contrasting beautifully with the robust sausage. The eggs, cooked to a creamy consistency, offer a comforting and familiar element, creating a harmonious balance of flavors and textures. Slices of ripe, juicy tomato add a refreshing sweetness and a burst of color, their natural acidity cutting through the richness of the sausage and eggs.

A generous layer of peppery arugula brings a delightful sharpness and a vibrant green hue to the sandwich. Its slightly bitter notes complement the other ingredients, adding depth and complexity to the overall flavor profile. The arugula's crisp texture provides a welcome contrast to the softer components, enhancing the sensory experience.

This breakfast sandwich is more than just a meal; it's an invitation to savor the simple pleasures of life. It's perfect for a leisurely weekend brunch, a quick and satisfying weekday breakfast, or even a light and flavorful lunch. Feel free to customize it to your liking.

Consider swapping the Italian sausage for chicken or turkey sausage for a leaner option, or experimenting with different cheeses for added richness and flavor. You can also add your favorite herbs and spices to the scrambled eggs for a personal touch. Enjoy this delightful creation on its own or alongside a cup of coffee or tea.

For a complete Mediterranean-inspired meal, pair it with a light salad or a side of olives and feta cheese. Whether you're following a specific dietary plan or simply looking for a delicious and satisfying breakfast option, this Mediterranean-inspired sandwich is sure to please. The combination of savory sausage, creamy eggs, sweet tomato, and peppery arugula creates a symphony of flavors and textures that will leave you feeling energized and ready to tackle the day ahead.

Instructions

    1.
    Remove the sausage meat from its casings and place it in a mixing bowl. Add the Italian seasoning and mix thoroughly with your hands. Adjust the seasoning to taste, considering the pre-existing seasoning level in the sausage meat.
    2.
    Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Divide the sausage meat into four equal portions and shape each into a patty. Place the patties in the heated skillet and cook until they are fully cooked, with no pink remaining and piping hot throughout.
    3.
    While the patties are cooking, crack the eggs into a bowl. Season with salt and pepper, then whisk well to combine.
    4.
    Remove the cooked patties from the skillet and set aside. Pour the beaten eggs into the same skillet, allowing them to settle briefly before scrambling with a wooden spoon or spatula until cooked to your preference.
    5.
    Slice the tomato into two even discs. Divide the arugula between two of the cooked sausage patties. Top each patty with a slice of tomato.
    6.
    Divide the scrambled eggs between the two patties, piling them on top of the tomato slices. Top each sandwich with a second patty to serve. Serve hot.
