INGREDIENTS

  • Protein

    • 1 pound breakfast sausage
    • 🥚 4 large eggs

  • Dairy

    • 🥛 1 1/2 cups milk
    • 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese

  • Grains

    • 1 box macaroni and cheese mix

  • Seasoning

    • 🧂 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
    • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
    • 1 tablespoon hot sauce, such as Cholula

  • Vegetables

    • 2 tablespoons green onions

  • Water

    • 💧 1 cup water

STEPS

1

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

2

Heat an ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add sausage and cook, crumbling with a spoon, until browned and no longer pink, about 7 minutes.

3

Add macaroni, milk, water, and powdered cheese packet to the skillet. Stir the mixture, scraping any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet.

4

Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Cook, stirring occasionally, until pasta is tender and the sauce is thick and creamy, about 10 minutes. Stir in 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese and turn off the heat.

5

Using a spoon, create 4 wells in the macaroni mixture and crack 1 egg into each well. Sprinkle the remaining cheese around the eggs and season with salt.

6

Bake the skillet in the preheated oven until the egg whites are just set, about 5 minutes.

7

Sprinkle the dish with ground black pepper, green onions, and drizzle with hot sauce before serving.
