Description
Fluffy scrambled eggs, savory breakfast sausage, and melty cheddar cheese, all wrapped in a warm tortilla for a delicious and portable morning meal.
Ingredients
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 pound breakfast sausage (pork, turkey, or plant-based), crumbled
6 large eggs
2 tablespoons milk or water
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or other preferred cheese)
4 medium (8-inch) flour tortillas
Instructions
Step 1: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the crumbled breakfast sausage and cook, breaking it apart with a spoon, until fully browned and cooked through. Drain any excess grease and set the sausage aside.
Step 2: In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk (or water), salt, and pepper until well combined and slightly frothy.
Step 3: Return the skillet (or use a fresh one) to medium-low heat. Pour in the egg mixture and cook, stirring gently with a spatula, until the eggs are set but still moist and fluffy. Be careful not to overcook.
Step 4: Warm the tortillas: You can do this in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 15-20 seconds per side, in the microwave for 15-30 seconds, or wrapped in foil in a warm oven.
Step 5: To assemble each roll-up, lay a warm tortilla flat. Spoon a portion of the scrambled eggs onto the center, followed by a portion of the cooked sausage. Sprinkle generously with shredded cheddar cheese.
Step 6: Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then tightly roll it up from the bottom. Serve immediately or prepare for meal prep.
Notes
For a spicy kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the eggs or a dash of hot sauce before rolling. These are excellent for meal prepping and can be easily customized with your favorite veggies like diced bell peppers or spinach.
