Directions

Slit casings on sausages, then crumble and brown in a heavy skillet; drain and Set aside.

Add eggs and milk to a large bowl and salt and pepper to taste; whip mixture until frothy. Melt butter in 12 inch, oven safe, non-stick skillet over medium high heat. Add bell peppers, onions and jalapenos, and saute for 5 minutes. Distribute sausage and top with cheese. Pour egg mixture into pan and stir with rubber spatula. Cook for 4 to 5 minutes or until the egg mixture has set on the bottom and begins to set up on top.
