Nutritional Facts

Calories: 483

Net Carb: 8.4g

Total Fat: 32g

Protein: 39g

Ingredients

5 eggs

5 tbsp. milk

2 tbsp. chopped green pepper

2 mushrooms

1 link sausage

1/2 tsp. spice mix

Salt to taste

Recipe – 10min prep / 15min cooking time

Chop our sausages, mushrooms, and peppers as small as possible.

Tip: You can grate mushrooms and pepper. If you are unsure, you can chop very finely.

Beat our eggs well in a bowl.

Add milk, salt, and any seasoning you want, and whisk more.

Add the chopped or grated ingredients to the beaten eggs.

Pour olive oil into a small bowl, then grease a large skillet well with a brush.

Keep the bowl because you may need to use a little more.

After the pan is heated, take 1 ladle of the mixture and pour it into the pan.

Roll one corner of the pancakes, which are cooked on low heat, until halfway.

Reapply oil with a brush to the exposed part since you rolled it.

Then, pull the roller back towards the part where you applied oil, and this time, apply oil to the other part that remains open.

After cooking, pour the egg mixture back into the part you just greased with a ladle and repeat the same steps.

When the mixture is finished, your roll will probably be completed.

As the last step, if you are sure the meat will not fall apart when fried at medium heat, you can fry the outer parts a little more.

Tip: If your eggs tear when you roll and pull them back, you can pour some egg mixture into the torn part.

While rolling the eggs, you can spread some cream cheese.

Bottom Line

You can make any additions and cuts to all recipes. For example, those who do not like mushrooms can cut it from the list and add a little more green pepper instead.

However, make sure that the carb ratios of the ingredients you replace for these additions are not more than the ratio of the ones you cut from the recipe list.
