Heat oven to 375º. Spray large cookie sheet with cooking spray. In 10" nonstick skillet, cook sausage and onions over medium-high heat 5-8 minutes or until thoroughly cooked; drain. Stir in bell pepper; cook until tender. Remove from pan.
In small bowl, beat 5 eggs, the salt and pepper. Add egg mixture to skillet, cook over medium heat, stirring
