Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 4 large eggs
- ½ lb breakfast sausage
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 4 large tortillas
Supporting Ingredients:
- ¼ cup milk
- 1 tablespoon butter
Seasonings:
- Salt
- Pepper
Optional Toppings:
- Salsa
- Hot sauce
- Avocado
Instructions
- Crumble ½ lb breakfast sausage in a skillet over medium heat until thoroughly browned and completely separated into small pieces.
- Whisk 4 large eggs with ¼ cup milk, adding salt and pepper to taste in a mixing bowl until completely combined and slightly frothy.
- Melt 1 tbsp butter in the same skillet over medium-low heat for 2 minutes, then pour egg mixture into pan.
- Scramble eggs gently with a spatula for 3-4 minutes, stirring constantly until they reach soft, fluffy consistency without browning.
- Warm 4 large tortillas for 15 seconds in microwave to increase flexibility and prevent cracking.
- Position each tortilla and distribute scrambled eggs, cooked sausage, and ¼ cup shredded cheddar cheese evenly across center.
- Fold tortilla sides inward, then roll tightly from bottom edge to seal ingredients completely inside.
- Return rolled tortillas to skillet, cooking seam-side down for 1-2 minutes at medium heat to create a golden, crispy exterior.
- Rotate roll-ups and cook opposite side for additional 1-2 minutes until entire surface appears lightly golden and sealed.
- Remove from heat and slice diagonally, serving immediately with optional salsa or hot sauce on the side.
Notes
- Make sure your tortillas are room temperature and pliable to prevent cracking when rolling.
- Drain excess grease from sausage to keep roll-ups from becoming soggy and maintain a crisp texture.
- Grate your own cheese instead of using pre-shredded for better melting and richer flavor.
- Prepare all ingredients before cooking to streamline the assembly process and ensure everything stays warm.
