This spicy venison sausage egg scramble recipe checks off all four of my requirements for a good breakfast: spicy, quick, easy, delicious. If you have precooked venison sausage, this protein-packed, Paleo-friendly breakfast should take you five minutes from start to end.
Editor's Note: I always have two to three pounds of cooked ground venison in the freezer, and a pound thawed in the refrigerator ready to go for a variety of different recipes calling for ground venison .
Serves: 1 Total time: 5-10 minutes (if using precooked venison) Paleo friendly: Yes

Directions:
In a small skillet, preheat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over low to medium heat. Scatter precooked ground venison breakfast sausage in skillet, stir until heated. Crack open and pour two medium-size eggs over venison sausage. Add red pepper for that extra kick. (Jeff Phillips photo) Add crushed red pepper and onion flakes to your liking. Add salt and pepper to taste (optional). When eggs start to cook, begin to stir/scramble the mixture together until eggs are fully cooked. Crank the heat up with a few drops of original Tabasco sauce. (Jeff Phillips photo) Dump venison egg scramble into bowl, add a few drops of original Tabasco sauce, top with shredded cheese.
