Nutrivore Score: 287
Ingredients
- 3 ounces bacon thick slices (about 3), chopped
- 1 pound ground pork
- 1 tablespoon sage fresh, chopped
- 2 sprigs thyme
- 1/2 teaspoon salt (or truffle salt)
- 1/4 teaspoon mace ground
- 3 cups winter squash peeled, seeded, and cut into 1/4 to 1/2 inch dice
- 10 large eggs beaten
Instructions
- Place the chopped bacon in a cold large ovenproof skillet, then turn on the heat to medium-high. Cook until crisp. 8 to 10 minutes.
- Preheat the oven broiler to high.
- Add the ground pork, sage, thyme, salt, and mace to the skillet. Cook, stirring frequently with a wooden spoon or spatula to break up the pork, until the pork is fully browned, 8 to 10 minutes.
- Carefully remove the thyme stems, then add the squash. Cook until the squash is tender, 5 to 6 minutes. The cooking time will depend on the variety of squash you are using and how finely it is diced.
- Add the beaten eggs. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes, stirring a couple of times.
- Transfer the skillet to the oven and broil until the eggs and completely cooked, puffed up, and starting to brown on top, 7 to 10 minutes. The broiling time varies from oven to oven, so watch it carefully. Serve immediately. Store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
