This breakfast skillet is one of my favorite meals to make! It tastes so good and is so easy to make! Everything is cooked in one pan: a cast iron skillet.
The breakfast sausage and mushrooms are cooked on the stovetop in the skillet, then the cheese is melted under broil in the oven. The green onions on top make for a perfect crunch with the smooth mushrooms and breakfast sausage underneath. This makes an easy one pan breakfast!

The Execution
1. Gather and prep all ingredients. Turn on the oven to a broil to preheat. Pour half the olive oil onto a cast iron skillet and turn on the stovetop to a medium heat.
2. Wash mushrooms, dry well with a paper towel, and cut the mushrooms into slices.
