How To Make breakfast scramble vol-au-vent
-
Step 1Bake vol-au-vent shells according to package directions.
-
Step 2In the jar of a blender, add avocado, lemon juice and 2 tbsp. water. Process until smooth and thin (not too thin) by adding a little bit more water to it until desired consistency.
-
Step 3Add avocado to béchamel sauce and whisk until incorporated; taste and adjust if necessary.
-
Step 4Place a piece of wax paper on top making sure it covers the surface, move the sauce to the back burner and keep it warm until ready to serve.
-
Step 5In a medium bowl, add eggs and season with salt and pepper; beat well and set aside.

Step 6In a skillet over medium heat, add hot Italian sausage and break the meat into small pieces. Cook until no longer pink, about 5 to 7 minutes.

Step 7When it’s done, use a slotted spoon and transfer the meat to a bowl; set aside.
-
Step 8In the same skillet, add onions and sauté for 2 minutes. Add red, orange and poblano peppers; sauté for 3 minutes.

Step 9Return hot Italian sausage back to the skillet and mix everything together.
