Breakfast – Bread-less Sausage Sliders

It will take you 15-20 minutes to make Bread-less Sausage Sliders.

Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp. salsa
  • 3 Smithfield® Fully Cooked Sausage Patties
  • 6 eggs, lightly beaten
  • 3 slices Sharp White cheese, quartered
  • 2 tbsp. Guacamole

Preparation

1. Preheat oven to 350˚F. Grease 12 mini muffin cups. Evenly pour eggs into cups. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until eggs are set. Let cool for 5 minutes; remove from muffin cups.

2. Meanwhile, heat sausage patties according to package directions. Cut each patty into quarters.

3. Arrange 1 sausage patty piece on one egg muffin “bread slice.” Top with quartered cheese slices, guacamole and salsa. Cap with another egg muffin “bread slice.” Repeat to make 6 sliders.

Taste Tip: You can skip buying avocado and buy a tasty Avocado sauce. Using a sauce or spread can save you a lot of preparation time and money.

To save time: Pre-cook double the number of eggs and make enough for the next day. You can also buy a container of liquid eggs and save time having to crack them by hand. Buy pre-sliced cheese even though it may be more expensive if you are on a time crunch.

For more variety: Buy many types of cheese. Since the tastes of cheese vary greatly, you can keep from getting bored with the taste by switching from Sharpe White to Cheddar for variety
