Instructions
- Cook the turkey sausage: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the turkey sausage until it is browned and fully cooked through, breaking it into crumbles as it cooks.

- Scramble the eggs with sausage: Pour the egg mixture into the skillet with the cooked sausage and scramble gently until the eggs are fully cooked.
