    Omelet with Sausage Crust

    With a recipe that's both deceptively simple and incredibly versatile, the omelet with sausage crust has carved out its own niche in the culinary world. Hailing from the intersection of convenience and culinary innovation, the omelet with sausage crust has charmed food lovers with its unique preparation and satisfying flavor. The distinctive sausage layer adds a delicious umami note and crispy texture, making the perfect foundation for an omelette's creamy center. This dish is not just a culinary trend; it's a versatile meal that caters to different dietary needs.

    Pair your omelette with sausage crust with a side of sliced avocados, a Fruit Salad, or a green salad to balance the meal. A dollop of Fire-Roasted Salsa or hot sauce can add a zesty kick for those who crave a bit of heat in the morning.

    Ingredients

    Serves: 8 Prep Time: 20 minutes Cook Time: 1 hour 5 minutes

    Crust

    • ¾ lb ground beef
    • ¾ lb breakfast sausage
    • 2 eggs, lightly beaten
    • ½ cup onion, minced
    • ¼ cup chopped basil
    • ¾ teaspoon oregano
    • Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

    Omelet

    • 6 eggs
    • 2 tablespoon coconut milk
    • ¼ teaspoon onion powder
    • â…› cup red bell pepper, chopped
    • 2 tablespoon chives, chopped

    How to Make Omelet with Sausage Crust

    Preheat your oven to 350 F.

    Combine together in a bowl the ground beef, sausage meat, eggs, onion, basil (keep 1 tablespoon of the basil for the omelet filling), oregano and season to taste. Set 1 cup of the mixture aside.

    Line the rest of the mixture in a round 10-inch pie plate as you would a normal crust by pressing everything together firmly.

    Bake the crust for 15 minutes in the preheated oven.

    Meanwhile, sauté the reserved meat mixture in a bit of cooking fat until well cooked. Let cool.

    Remove the pre-baked crust from the oven and set aside to cool for about 10 minutes.

    Combine the eggs, coconut milk, onion powder and red bell peppers in a bowl with a whisk. Season to taste with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper.

    Pour the egg mixture over the cooled sausage crust and then sprinkle the remaining 1 cup basil and sausage mixture as well as the chopped chives and bake in the preheated oven for about 45 minutes.
