This is a definate WINNER!! We loved the mix of the seasoned sausage with the onions and peppers. And you MUST eat it with the egg- it just enhances the flavor. My DH said to put this in my favorites cookbook after his 1st bite. Thank you so much!! We ate this with recipe#244906, which was so good! Made for the French Forum Herb of the Month- paprika.
