Cooking Instructions
- In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper. Continue whisking until the eggs are nice and frothy. Set aside.

- Add the sausages and brown 1 minute on each side.
- Add the tomato and cook, stirring, about 1 minute.
- Reduce the heat to medium-low, add the egg mixture and cook without stirring, until the eggs just begin to set, about 1 minute.
