You can make it with the pork sausage,
or omit it and just bake the eggs with the cream.

2 Tbsp. butter

1 tsp. dry mustard powder
1/4 tsp. salt or to taste

Grease an 11x7" glass baking dish and set aside.
If using sausage, cook sausage in small saucepan,
breaking up meat with a fork, until browned and cooked.
Drain thoroughly.
Place sausage in prepared dish
and top with cheese; dot with butter.
In small bowl, combine cream, mustard powder and salt;
pour half of mixture into baking dish on top of cheese and butter.
In medium bowl, beat eggs until frothy. Pour into baking dish.
Drizzle remaining cream mixture over eggs.
