Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a large non-stick pan, heat over medium heat and add your homemade lightened-up breakfast sausage. Cook for 7-10 minutes, using a spatula to break it apart as it browns and cooks through. Once fully cooked and no longer pink, remove the sausage from the pan and set it aside.
- In a medium bowl, crack open the large eggs and whisk them together. Add the granulated garlic, onion powder, salt, pepper, Greek yogurt, and salsa, mixing until everything is thoroughly combined.
- Spray the same pan with a bit of cooking spray to prevent sticking. Heat it on medium-low until the spray shimmers slightly, signaling that it's time to add the egg mixture.
- Pour the whisked egg mixture into the heated pan, gently stirring with a spatula. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring frequently for about 5-7 minutes, until the eggs are just set but still soft and fluffy.
- Once the eggs are cooked to your liking, stir in the cooked sausage, fluffy cooked quinoa, and shredded cheddar cheese. Mix thoroughly for 2-3 minutes until the cheese is melted.
- Remove the pan from the heat and serve your warm Sausage Cheese Quinoa Breakfast Bowl immediately. Consider garnishing with additional salsa or a dollop of Greek yogurt.

Notes
For meal prep, consider cooking extra sausage and quinoa in bulk. Store them separately in airtight containers for quick assembly during busy mornings.
