Matzoh Brei Scramble

This recipe is definitely not kosher.  It's for people like me who don't necessarily keep kosher and now have more matzoh than they wish they did.  It can easily be made KLP by omitting the sausage and adding diced fresh tomatoes or another veggie, which would taste fantastic.  I only bought the sausage and eggs because whoever was ordering for my Pavilions over-estimated demand and they were dirt cheap.

This is basically the matzoh version of a breakfast burrito, which is what I was really in the mood for.  Didn't have any tortillas.  Feel free to add salsa and give it a huevos rancheros treatment.  I tore up a few leaves of arugula from the garden to give it some zing.

*1 sheet matzoh
*1 egg
salt to taste
milk as needed
2 link sausages
1 Tb sliced green onion
chopped spinach, tomatoes, or any veggie add-on you like
1 Tb butter or margarine
2 Tb shredded cheddar or Mexican cheese

1.  Crush matzoh in a bowl.  Pour about 2 Tb boiling water on the pieces and allow it to soak in, about 5 minutes.  Cook sausages to package directions, then chop or crumble.
2.  Crack egg into bowl and scramble with the matzoh using a fork.  Salt lightly.  I didn't think it was going to need it because of the sausage and cheese but, um, matzoh.  If there doesn't appear to be enough liquid to hold the matzoh together, add a tablespoon or two of milk.  Stir in all the add-ins except the cheese.
3.  Grease an omelet pan with the butter and preheat over medium.  Pour in brei mixture and allow to cook until slightly set, about 2 minutes.  Either flip like a pancake or break up and scramble.  Cook other side until no longer runny, then sprinkle with the cheese.  When the cheese begins to melt, remove pan from the heat and serve.
