HOW TO MAKE IT

Let's cook.

01

Heat olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add breakfast sausage and cook, breaking it apart with a spoon, until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess grease and set sausage aside.

02

In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until well combined.

03

Return the skillet to medium-low heat. Pour in the egg mixture and cook, stirring gently with a spatula, until the eggs are softly set and fluffy, about 3-5 minutes. Do not overcook.

04

Remove eggs from heat and stir in the cooked sausage and half of the shredded cheddar cheese.

05

Warm the flour tortillas briefly in a microwave for 15-20 seconds or in a dry skillet for 30 seconds per side to make them more pliable.

06

Lay each warm tortilla flat. Spoon about 1/4 of the egg and sausage mixture onto the center of each tortilla. Sprinkle the remaining cheddar cheese evenly over the fillings.

07

Fold in the sides of each tortilla, then tightly roll it up from the bottom to form a burrito.

08

Serve immediately or wrap for later enjoyment.

Chef's Tips

For extra flavor, add a dash of hot sauce or a sprinkle of chopped fresh cilantro to the filling before rolling. To get perfectly fluffy eggs, cook them over medium-low heat and remove them from the pan just as they are set.

Easy Substitutions

You can substitute breakfast sausage with diced ham or cooked bacon. For a vegetarian option, use sautéed mushrooms and spinach. Any melty cheese like Monterey Jack or a Mexican blend works well instead of cheddar.
