I have made this sausage asparagus skillet recipe from Simply in Season several times over the years, and when I’ve posted it previously it received great reviews. It’s probably the one asparagus recipe that almost everybody likes. So I thought it was perfect to share for this week’s #SundaySupper theme: Eggtastic Recipes.
When I was describing the recipe to DH to remind him of it, he said, “that sounds like a breakfast recipe.” It then occurred to me that perhaps the addition of a fried egg or two on top would turn it into even more of a breakfast-y sort or recipe. And so this minor adjustment elevated this simple skillet meal to something I would definitely order in a restaurant.
The Verdict: I couldn’t believe how wonderful the runny egg yolk was when sliding into to the sausage and asparagus mixture. It was like a hollandaise sauce effect without having to go to the trouble of making hollandaise sauce. I didn’t even miss the cheese, which I forgot was supposed to be on there until we were halfway through with breakfast. Oh yeah, this is my new favorite way to make this recipe.

Oh, we love fried eggs around here- this sounds wonderful. I have one bag left of our asparagus (I’m letting the bed go to ferns now after two months of picking) and I think my husband will be OK with this. He’s gotten a bit tired of it and is happy to see it’s season end. Adding sausage and egg, though? I bet he’ll love it!

Fried eggs over rice or noodles is beloved by many Japanese…And I love fried eggs over anything including potatoes and asparagus…You’re right that the slightly runny egg is a fantastic replacement for Hollandaise =)
Thanks ever so much for hosting this eggtastic Sunday Supper Wendy!

You are welcome! I never did master Hollandaise 😉

I love the combination of everything in this Skillet meal. I’m all about skillet meals so I must try this because everything is better with an egg on top!
