Ingredients
- 1 lb breakfast sausage
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 1/4 cup diced onion (optional)
- 1/4 cup diced bell pepper (optional)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Cooking spray or oil for frying
Instructions
- In a skillet, cook the breakfast sausage over medium heat until browned and fully cooked. If using, add the diced onion and bell pepper and sauté until soft.
- In a bowl, beat the eggs and season with salt and pepper. Pour the eggs into the skillet with the sausage mixture and scramble until fully cooked.
- Warm the flour tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave until pliable.
- Evenly distribute the sausage and egg mixture onto the center of each tortilla. Sprinkle with shredded cheddar cheese.
- Fold the sides of the tortilla in, then roll from the bottom up to enclose the filling. Repeat with the remaining tortillas.
- Heat a skillet over medium heat and lightly grease with cooking spray or oil. Place the burritos seam-side down and cook until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side.
- Serve hot with your favorite salsa or hot sauce.
