Courtney's Breakfast Burritos

Ingredients

Instructions

  • 4 oz. breakfast sausage
  • 1 tbls minced onion
  • 1/2 tbls canned minced mild green chilies,
  • 4 eggs, beaten
  • salt, pepper
  • 4 - 8 inch flour tortillas
  • 4 slices American cheese.
Preheat skillet over medium heat. Crumble sausage into the pan and add the onion. Saute the sausage and onion for 3 -4 minutes or until sausage is browned.

Add the mild green chilies and continue to saute for one minute.

Pour the beaten eggs into the pan and scramble the eggs with the sausage. Add a dash of salt and pepper.

Heat up the tortillas by steaming in the microwave in the moist paper towels or in a tortilla steamer for 20 - 30 seconds.

Break each slice of cheese in half and position two halves end to end in the middle of each tortilla.

To make the burrito, spoon 1/4 of the egg filling onto the cheese in a tortilla. Fold one side of the tortilla over the filling, then fold one end up about 2 inches. Fold over the other side of the tortilla to complete the burrito (one end should remain open. Serve hot with salsa on the side.

I sometimes use the already cooked sausage and add 1 tbls of instant onion flakes. Follow the rest of recipe.

Freezes well. If freezing, do not heat burritos before filling. Microwave for a quick morning breakfast.
